I wanted a bit of a distraction this evening, so I put together a quick valgrind plugin. Just select “Run with Valgrind” from the drop down menu and it will make sure your program is run using the venerable valgrind.
If valgrind isn’t available in your runtime (host, jhbuild, flatpak, etc) you wont see the menu item. But thankfully the org.gnome.Sdk runtime we use to build GNOME apps has it, so for many of you it should Just Work™.
Does it use –track-origins?
If not, can you configure the flags passed to it?
It does now. We should add proper preferences for this of course (in case you’d like to do that). 🙂
