The second step in Purify'ing your native-compiled Visual C/C++ code is to analyze the Data Browser messages.
By default, the Error View initially displays only the first line of each message. This condensed outline format makes it easy to scan the messages, quickly identify critical errors, and assess the state of the program. With a single click, you can expand the outline to see more detailed diagnostic information.
Using this Error View information, you can identify, understand, and eliminate hard-to-find memory access errors and memory leaks. If debug line data was available when you instrumented the program, you can also examine the source code. Because Purify detects access errors at the point where they occur, and displays this information in the Error View, you can easily track and eliminate these errors.
