6 memprobe - ROOT utility to examine memory usage

9 memprobe [options]

12 To activate the memory checker you have to set in the .rootrc file the
13 resource Root.MemCheck to 1 (e.g.: Root.MemCheck: 1) and you have to
14 link with libNew.so (e.g. use root-config --new --libs) or use
15 rootn.exe.
16
17 When all this is the case you will find at the end of the program exe‐
18 cution a file memcheck.out in the directory where you started your ROOT
19 program. Alternatively you can set the resource Root.MemCheckFile to
20 the name of a file to which the leak information will be written. The
21 contents of this memcheck.out file can be analyzed and transformed into
22 printable text via the memprobe program (in /usr/bin).
