Improve Code Reliability and Quality on Windows* and Linux*
Intel® Inspector XE
(Formerly Intel® Thread Checker) Detect memory and threading defects early in the development cycle, and deliver reliable applications.
|
 |
Intel® Inspector XE is a powerful and easy-to-use memory error and thread checker tool for C, C++, C# .NET, and Fortran developers designing serial and parallel applications on Windows*- and Linux*-based platforms. Intel® Inspector XE enhances developer productivity and facilitates application reliability by effectively finding crucial memory and threading defects early in the development cycle. It gives detailed insights into application memory and threading behavior to improve application reliability. The powerful thread checker and debugger makes it easier to find latent errors on the executed code path. It also finds intermittent and non-deterministic errors, even if the error-causing timing scenario does not happen. In addition, developers can test their code more often, without the need to use special test builds or compilers. |

Intel® Inspector XE Goes Right to the Source The intuitive GUI of the Intel® Inspector XE memory error and thread checker tool enables developers to easily select the type of analysis to find the root cause of latent or crash-causing threading and memory defects and then identify errors at the source- code line. This valuable debugger analysis enables developers to get more done in less time. |

Intel® Inspector XE Overview
This gives a short overview of the memory checking and thread check capabilities of Intel® Inspector XE. It is recommended as the first video to watch before using the free evaluation download. It is shown integrated in Microsoft Visual Studio*. With the exception of project management, the capabilities shown and the interface are the same in the Linux* and standalone Windows* products. |
|
Intel® Inspector XE Standalone Project Management This video shows how to set up a project to run Intel® Inspector XE from the Linux or Windows standalone user interface. If you use Microsoft Visual Studio, skip this video. As this video does not illustrate the memory and thread checker analysis, be sure to watch the overview video, too. |

Julian Horn, Architect Talks about Horn answers questions about the hows and whys of static analysis, the design philosophy behind the Static Security Analysis (SSA) in Intel® Parallel Studio XE and Intel® C++ Studio XE. SSA uses Intel® Inspector XE to display the results gathered by the compiler. |

"Intel® Inspector XE 2011 intuitive user interface and powerful analysis features increased my productivity by making it easier and faster to find memory and threading errors in the code. With one easy-to-use tool, Intel® Inspector XE 2011 made it possible to customize the type and depth of analysis with greater efficiency and speed when finding memory or threading coding defects, helping save time." |

"Intel SSA allowed us to easily find lots of potential flaws, thus preventing future bugs or misuse to occur. Ultimately, we expect the SSA to help us not reproduce typical security flaws." Note: Static Security Analysis is available in Intel® Parallel Studio XE and Intel® C++ Studio XE |

"Having such a tool this early in the development stage frees the validation from trivial bug reports and gives our engineers the opportunity to code more efficiently from the very beginning of the product cycle." |

"The Intel Parallel Studio XE Static Security Analysis tool was easy to set up and intuitive to use. The user interface lets you concentrate on particular classes of error or particular files in the project. It provides the ability to filter out much of the noise and keeps it filtered out even after changes to the code have been made. This gives it a great advantage over tools that just generate text output." Note: Static Security Analysis is available in Intel® Parallel Studio XE and Intel® C++ Studio XE |
