(1) ValgrindのPossibly Lostの意味や実際のサンプルをご紹介
本記事ではValgrindにおけるメモリリークのカテゴリの1つである「Possibly Lost」についてご紹介します。
(1-1) Valgrindの「Possibly Lost」はどんな状況?

(1-2) 例1:サンプルプログラム
#include <stdlib.h> int *x1; int main(void) { //# int型の配列(4要素)を動的に確保 int *i = new int[4]; //# 配列の各要素に値を格納 i[0] = 10; i[1] = 11; i[2] = 12; i[3] = 13; //# グローバル変数のポインタ「*x1」のアドレスに、iの2要素先 //# つまり配列の3要素目のアドレスを代入する x1 = i+2; return 0; }
