Finding Bugs with AddressSanitizer: MSVC Compiler--Augustin Popa

A very useful tool.

Finding Bugs with AddressSanitizer: MSVC Compiler

by Augustin Popa

From the article:

The AddressSanitizer (ASan) is generally available for MSVC since the recently-released Visual Studio 2019 version 16.9. We’ve already shown how easy it can be to find bugs in even production-ready code like EASTL. Here I’ll share an example of how it found a real bug in the MSVC compiler itself.

The idea was straightforward: ASan finds bugs, and we’re always interested in finding bugs in the compiler. Just like you can turn ASan on in your projects and run your tests, we’ve been turning on ASan on our project (the compiler) and running it on our tests. Sure enough, this found bugs...

Ticket Maps--Anthony Williams

Simple and efficient.

Ticket Maps

by Anthony Williams

From the article:

It has been an increasingly common scenario that I've encountered where you have some ID that's monotonically increasing, such as a subscription or connection index, or user ID, and you need your C++ program to hold some data that's associated with that ID value. The program can then pass round the ID, and use that ID to access the associated data at a later point...
