Tutorial: Analyzing Memory Errors with Intel® Inspector and a C++ Sample
To find memory errors that may need fixing, run a memory error analysis.
Click the Start button on the Analysis Type window and the Intel Inspector:
Executes the tachyon.find_and_fix_memory_errors application.
Identifies memory errors that may need handling.
Collects the result in a directory in the intel/inspxe/projects/memory/ directory.
Finalizes the result.
During analysis, the Intel Inspector displays a Collection Log window similar to the following:
The result name appears in the tab. Here, the name of the result is r000mi2, where
NoteIntel Inspector also offers a pointer to the result in the Project Navigator. |
|
The Collection Log pane shows analysis progress and milestones. Notice you can start to manage results before analysis (collection and finalization) is complete by clicking the Summary button; however, this tutorial does not cover handling issues before analysis is complete. |
This tutorial explains how to run an analysis from the Intel Inspector GUI. You can also use the Intel Inspector command line interface (inspxe-cl command) to run an analysis.
The Summary window automatically displays after analysis completes successfully.
