How to setup valgrind

Olivier54653 · June 2019

Hello,

I would like to know what are the best practices to use valgrind with Ice.

With the following xml as an example:

<application name="Ripper">
    <node name="Node1">
        <server id="EncoderServer" exe="/opt/ripper/bin/server" activation="on-demand">
            <adapter name="EncoderAdapter" id="EncoderAdapter" endpoints="tcp"/>
            <property name="Ice.Trace.Network" value="1"/>
        </server>
    </node>
</application>

how should I change it so that the executable /opt/ripper/bin/server is lauched using valgrind? Is it as simple as replacing /opt/ripper/bin/server by valgrind /opt/ripper/bin/server?

Thank you for you help!

Hi,

You should use valgrind as the server exe and pass your server as an argument using the option element, something like:

<application name="Ripper">
    <node name="Node1">
        <server id="EncoderServer" exe="valgrind" activation="on-demand">
            <adapter name="EncoderAdapter" id="EncoderAdapter" endpoints="tcp"/>
            <property name="Ice.Trace.Network" value="1"/>
             <option>/opt/ripper/bin/server</option>
        </server>
    </node>
</application>
