Enable memory debugging

To enable memory debugging, in the Run window select the Memory Debugging checkbox.

The default options are usually sufficient, but you might need to configure extra options (described in the following sections) if you have a multithreaded application or multithreaded MPI, such as that found on systems using Open MPI with Infiniband, or a Cray XE6 system.

When memory debugging is enabled, start your application as normal. The settings will be propagated through your MPI or batch system when your application starts.

If it is not possible to load the memory debugging library, a message will be displayed. You should refer to Memory debugging options for possible solutions.
