Simulating malloc failures

Name: Anonymous 2009-03-15 16:50

Is there something like valgrind that can make certain calls to malloc (also system calls could be interesting) fail?  My poor error paths never get tested.

To call malloc from your wrapper you'll have to grab the original malloc function via dlopen/dlsym. Easy!
