C-Analysis

November 1st, 2011

For one of our customers we analyzed an application written in C, which had been growing too big to be operated by Purify. We introduced the tools librtc, dmalloc and gdb-leaks as alternatives for dynamic analysis. Additionally, we recommended using cppcheck and Cadvise for static analysis. Furthermore, we identified some aspects the customer should pay attention to during the planned migration from HP-UX to Linux.
