Description

From bruen...@google.com on September 04, 2012 18:47:08

the idea is to create a plugin that enables easily running an app under Dr. Memory from within Visual Studio, parsing any resulting errors, and going to the source file line automatically for each error report frame selected.

Original issue: http://code.google.com/p/drmemory/issues/detail?id=1009

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the Dr. Memory command line interface and Visual Studio extensibility (VSIX). Create a Visual Studio package that integrates Dr. Memory execution, parses output for errors, and navigates to source lines.
