LIBTRACKMEM - Lightweight Runtime Memory Access Tracking for C/C++

Libtrackmem is a minimal C/C++ library that helps developers track memory usage and access patterns at runtime - without bulky instrumentation tools like Valgrind, and without modifying the compiler or replacing standard memory APIs.

Quick Start:

git clone https://github.com/gc1523/libtrackmem.git
cd libtrackmem
make install

And you're ready to go!

Usage:

• Simply use #include <trackmem.h> as you would any normal header file.
• Your file will automagically make use of tracking memory functions.
• When your program finishes executing, a usage summary will be displayed.
• Detailed logs are written to a file (default or user-defined).

Environment Variables:

The trackmem library supports the following environment variables to control its behaviour:

• TRACKMEM_DISABLE - if set to "1", disables memory tracking. Useful if you want to quickly toggle the tracking of your memory usage. Set to "0" for default tracking behaviour.
• TRACKMEM_LOG Specifies the name of the log file where memory tracking information will be written. If not set a default filepath will be used.
