Purify (http://www.pureatria.com/products/purify/) is a Solaris/HP
commercial application, big bucks but worth it if you do serious
development.
There's a program called Insure++ (http://www.parasoft.com/insure/)
that's works on a variety of platforms, including LINUX. It catches more
errors than Purify, as far as I can tell, including compile-time errors.
The interface isn't as nice though.
