  Purify (C memory monitor) for OpenVMS? 
 The Question is:
 
Is there a software package available on
ALPHAs running VMS that can detect
memory leaks and read/write access violations.
On WINDOWS NT, I have used purify and
bounds checker to do this.   Is there a
VMS equivalent of purify out there?
 
I have tried the VMS Heap_Analyzer but I don't
think that will help me.
 
 The Answer is:
 
  The Debugger Heap Analyzer is the usual approach for this -- the
  FAKE_VMS tool is also occasionally used, as is the CMEM tool on
  the OpenVMS Freeware.
 
  The OpenVMS Wizard strongly recommends consolidating all memory
  allocation and deallocation into central routines -- this greatly
  reduces the difficulty involved in managing dynamic memory, and
  permits use of replacement services such as the lib$ services.
