efence
is a little script to run a
program under gdb with
electric-fence
enabled to detect malloc buffer overruns. Using electric-fence alone gives a
segv when a problem is encountered. Running it under gdb means you can see
the offending instruction etc (with "where
" or
"disassemble
" etc in the usual way).
