Im looking for a library that provides me with memory function debugging ability... but not 'dbmalloc'. What I really need is something that lets me backtrace from free(). I have random, unpredictable, non-reproduceable crashes in free(). They can be very rare, and happen anywhere from 2 minutes to 2 days after the MUD has been running. Usually within a couple hours tho. backtrace shows nothing beyond free(). Right now I'm simply rewriting a system to track all memory allocated and such, to override CREATE and FREE macros that I use, and log the info... George, thanks for the buffers patch, its getting a second use here :-) - Chris Jacobson +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
