To obtain the source from github,
git clone --recursive https://github.com/CarloWood/libmemleak.git
this will also get the needed git submodule cwm4.
[ or, clone without --recursive and then: cd libmemleak git submodule init git submodule update ]
Next run ./autogen.sh to generate the configure script
and Makefile.in files.
OR download a tar ball from github
and extract with
tar xzf libmemleak.*.tar.gz
cd libmemleak
Run
./configure [--prefix=/usr]
to configure, or try
./configure --help
for more options.
In this case you might want to configure with --enable-maintainer-mode;
then ./autogen.sh needs to be rerun after running make maintainer-clean.
So don't do that unless you cloned the source from git (and have autogen.sh).
After configuration, compile the library with:
make
And install with
sudo make install
See README.md for usage documentation of this library. Or https://github.com/CarloWood/libmemleak for the html version there of.
