SYNOPSIS
run-with-memcheck binary arguments
DESCRIPTION
run-with-memcheck is a helper script for the Valgrind memcheck tool. The script runs given binary (with its arguments) under Valgrind using suitable options and checks a few things specific to Valgrinding in the Maemo GNU/Linux environment.
EXAMPLES
There are a few ways to use this script:
o If the binary is using "maemo-launcher", this script can be linked to the binary name instead of the "maemo-invoker" and the script will automatically call "maemo-summoner" as needed.
o Call the binary directly with this script, e.g. like this:
DISPLAY=:1 run-standalone.sh run-with-memcheck <binary> <arguments>
o Rename the original binary to <name>.real and put/link this script in place of the original binary.
FILES
The Valgrind output is saved into following file:
~/memcheck-<appname>-<pid>.log
