Rebuild and Rerun Analysis

Intel® Inspector
 is a dynamic memory and threading error checking tool for users developing serial and multithreaded applications on Windows* and Linux* operating systems. This topic is part of a
tutorial
 that shows how to find and fix
memory
 errors using the
Intel Inspector
 and a
C++
 sample application.
To check if your edits fixed the
Mismatched allocation/deallocation
 problem:

Rebuild the Application

In the terminal session:
  1. Change directory to the
    tachyon_insp_xe/
     directory.
  2. Type
    make
    .

Rerun the Analysis

To run another analysis of the same analysis type:
In the
Intel Inspector
 standalone GUI, choose
File
New
Memory Error Analysis / Detect Memory Problems
.
Notice the application output now displays properly.
The
Summary
 window automatically displays after analysis (both collection and finalization) completes successfully:
Summary window
Notice the
Intel Inspector
:
  • Created a new result tab:
    r002mi2
    .
  • No longer detects the
    Mismatched allocation/deallocation
     problem
    in the
    find_and_fix_memory_errors.cpp
     source file
    .

Product and Performance Information

Intel's compilers may or may not optimize to the same degree for non-Intel microprocessors for optimizations that are not unique to Intel microprocessors. These optimizations include SSE2, SSE3, and SSSE3 instruction sets and other optimizations. Intel does not guarantee the availability, functionality, or effectiveness of any optimization on microprocessors not manufactured by Intel. Microprocessor-dependent optimizations in this product are intended for use with Intel microprocessors. Certain optimizations not specific to Intel microarchitecture are reserved for Intel microprocessors.
