Intel(R) 20 Questions Contest: Question #2
Question:
Intel® Parallel Inspector: What is the initial state of every memory or threading error that Intel(R) Parallel Inspector finds?
Correct Answer:
"Not fixed"
Details:
Intel® Parallel Inspector is a powerful error checking tool that:
- Finds memory errors, including leaks and corruptions, in single and multithreaded applications.
- Accurately pinpoints latent threading errors including deadlocks and data races. This helps reduce stalls and crashes due to threading errors not found by debuggers and other tools.
Besides high-level description of found threading or memory error which includes ID, Problem type, Source file name(s), Module, and State (see Figure 1), Intel Parallel Inspector provides detailed description of a problem, including location of an error in source files. Intel Parallel Inspector is tightly integrated with Microsoft* Visual Studio so you can immediately fix the error using familiar Microsoft* Visual Studio editor, re-compile your application, and re-run Intel Parallel Inspector to make sure that the problem is gone.
