@bytebro@mastodonapp.uk Originally Purify was developed by Pure Software. They merged with Atria. The merged company was bought by Rational who were bought by IBM. IBM sold PuifyPlus to UNICOM. As such it still exists https://www.unicomsi.com/products/purifyplus/ Free alternatives exist. Sanitizers work in a similar way to Purify (build time instrumentation). Sanitizers have separate functionality in Address Sanitizer (ASAN) and Memory Sanitizer (MSAN). You can't use them together and MSAN is only available with the LLVM toolchain. Valgrind is still going. I don't find it too difficult to use, but I do rather see it from the inside as it were.
