BoundsChecker
BoundsChecker is a memory checking and API call validation tool used for C++ software development with Microsoft Visual C++. It was created by NuMega in the early 1990s. When NuMega was purchased by Compuware in 1997, BoundsChecker became part of a larger tool suite, DevPartner Studio. Micro Focus purchased the product line from Compuware in 2009. Comparable tools include Purify, Insure++ and Valgrind. BoundsChecker may be run in two distinct modes: ActiveCheck, which will work against any application as is, or FinalCheck, which makes use of instrumentation added to the application when it is built. ActiveCheck performs a less intrusive analysis and monitors all calls by the application to the C Runtime Library, Windows API and calls to COM objects. By monitoring memory allocations and releases, it can detect memory leaks and overruns. Monitoring API and COM calls enables ActiveCheck to check parameters, returns and exceptions and report exceptions when they occur. Thread dea ...

Software Companies Based In New Hampshire
Software is a set of computer programs and associated documentation and data. This is in contrast to hardware, from which the system is built and which actually performs the work. At the lowest programming level, executable code consists of machine language instructions supported by an individual processor—typically a central processing unit (CPU) or a graphics processing unit (GPU). Machine language consists of groups of binary values signifying processor instructions that change the state of the computer from its preceding state. For example, an instruction may change the value stored in a particular storage location in the computer—an effect that is not directly observable to the user. An instruction may also invoke one of many input or output operations, for example displaying some text on a computer screen; causing state changes which should be visible to the user. The processor executes the instructions in the order they are provided, unless it is instructed to ...

CodeView
CodeView is a standalone debugger created by David Norris at Microsoft in 1985 as part of its development toolset. It originally shipped with Microsoft C 4.0 and later. It also shipped with Visual Basic (classic), Visual Basic for MS-DOS, Microsoft BASIC PDS, and a number of other Microsoft language products. It was one of the first debuggers for MS-DOS to be full-screen oriented, rather than line-oriented (as Microsoft's predecessors DEBUG (DOS command), DEBUG and SYMDEB or Digital Research's SID). Overview When running, CodeView presents the user with several window (computing), windows that can be tiled, moved, sized and otherwise manipulated via the keyboard or mouse, with CodeView 4.x providing a richer interface. Some of the windows include: * Code window – the code window showed the currently debugged code in its source code context. * Data window – a hex dump, hexadecimal dump of a user-specified memory area. * Watch window – a contextual display of variables by nam ...

Fault Simulator
{{Unreferenced, date=June 2019, bot=noref (GreenC bot) DevPartner Fault Simulator is a software development tool used to simulate application errors. It helps developers and quality assurance engineers write, test and debug those parts of the software responsible for handling fault situations which can occur within applications. The target application, where faults are simulated, behaves as if those faults were the result of a real software or hardware problem which the application could face. DevPartner Fault Simulator works with applications written for Microsoft Windows and .NET platforms and is integrated with the Microsoft Visual Studio development environment. DevPartner Fault Simulator belonged to the DevPartner family of products offered by Compuware. At some point before the product line was sold to Micro Focus in 2009, the product was retired.
