在程序的性能指标中，内存是一个很重要的方面。内存问题包括很多方面：内存泄漏，非法指针使用（包括很常见的问题--使用未初始化指针），数组越界，栈溢出和奇地址访问等。这些问题在C/C++语言当中尤为明显，因为很少有其他语言比如java提供指针直接访问地址和内存空间。
而内存问题越早发现，越好解决，给产品带来的负面影响也越小。今天我就给大家介绍一个很简单的在单元测试阶段发现内存问题的方法。这就是使用valgrind(在linux平台），使用MALLOCDEBUG在AIX平台或使用Purify在Solaris平台。
修改Makefile如下(Linux平台)：
修改A.cpp使其有内存泄漏：
编译运行结果是：
可以看出valgrind确实检测出了内存泄漏位于A::Multiply函数中，且在A.cpp的第12行。
不仅如此，valgrind还可以检测出其他很多内存问题，比如数组越界，非法地址访问等。
比如我们修改A.cpp如下：
编译运行结果是：
再比如数组越界：
运行结果是：
