Monrovia, California-based bug catcher Parasoft Corp released its automatic, run-time error detection environment, Insure++ Version 3, at Unix Expo last week. Insure++ includes the company’s patented Source Code Instrumentation, which reads, analyses and instruments the program’s source code, and Runtime Pointer Tracking, for building a database of the program’s pointers and memory blocks during execution. At run-time, each pointer is tracked and correlated with the database to check for memory leak. Version 3 enhancements include dynamic and static linking, support for pre-compiled headers, thread support and new system support for Dynix-ptx, Guardian, VMS, LynxOS, Linux, NT and Windows95. It is shipping for Solaris now, at from $2,000. Support for Hewlett-Packard Co, Digital Equipment Corp, IBM Corp and Silicon Graphics Inc will follow.
