From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The correct title of this article is mpatrol. The initial letter is shown capitalized due to technical restrictions.

mpatrol is a memory handling library developed by Graeme S. Roy. It serves as a memory debugger in that it allows the programmer to detect memory access errors and memory leaks. The library replaces the calls to malloc() and free() in a C program with calls to its own functions that serve as wrappers around the system calls. Functions defined by mpatrol monitor and log every program's memory access and detects possible memory access errors. mpatrol can be used under many varieties of Unix and Linux and on Windows.

mpatrol is GPLed free software.
