Geir Molstad, What is MungWall? Thanks. David

David, Mungwall is a developer's program that checks for out of bounds memory usage. That is…trying to write (or read) outside of an array's boundriess. Don

Not to mention not properly deallocating memory (i.e., deallocating 100 bytes when 120 were allocated). Not just a developer's tool. It's useful for anyone testing a program, either as a beta tester, a review writer or just someone who wants to know that the software s/he runs on her system is reliable.

From documentation: 12-Apr-93 Mungwall 37.68 / Munglist 37.8 doc. Mungwall munges memory and watches for illegal FreeMem's. Mungwall is especially useful in combination with Enforcer. Output is either serial or parallel (mungwall.par), or local by using both mungwall and a local serial debug capture tool such as Sushi. Geir Molstad, FAMO as, Fax +47 22381205
