Compaq Visual Fortran Memory Leaks

[calderoc224]

I was wondering if anyone had any useful advise/links as to where to get 3rd party software that works with compaq visual fortran. In my application i am running out of virtual memory.... There is a huge section of code that I did not write that uses dynamic arrays and I am guessing that not everything is deallocated upon exiting the subroutine, BUT i tried finding all of the possible leaks, but it is still happening. I heard that "Purify" was compatible with CVF, but i don't know much about or how to use it. Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

You could try http://www.memoryvalidator.com/-- they even have an evaluation version which could do the job. I did try it with CVF and it sort of works, but I admit I had difficulties interpreting the results -- in any case, RTFM would have probably helped (if I had time).

Thanks for the help, I will try out the evaluation version. By the way what does "RTFM" stand for?
