I am newbie to VSCode. Currently I would like to debug the memory leakage issue in the program. Therefore after searching the internet, I found that _CrtDumpMemoryLeaks() can be used to debug which line of code cause the memory leak issue. Therefore I wrote a C program in VSCode.
#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include <crtdbg.h>
int main (int argc, char* argv[])
{
int* offset_x = malloc(sizeof(int));
int* offset_y = malloc(sizeof(int));
if (offset_x==NULL || offset_y == NULL)
{
return 1;
}
*offset_x =10;
*offset_y = 20;
printf("%d",offset_x);
free(offset_x);
_CrtDumpMemoryLeaks();
return 0;
}
After running the program in VSCode, I got an error of
crtdbg.h: No such file or directory
in VSCode. I found crtdbg.h library is already inside the "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.19041.0\ucrt".
In the internet most of the c programs are run in visual studio community instead of VSCode to debug the memory leak issue.
Therefore, I would like to know if I want to use VSCode to debug the memory leak problem, can I use _CrtDumpMemoryLeaks() and how can I solve the problem of "crtdbg.h: No such file or directory" in VSCode as I think I already had crtdbg.h in "C:\Program Files (x86)\Windows Kits\10\Include\10.0.19041.0\ucrt" and I don't know why VSCode said no such file or directory.
Thank you.
