Hi,

You can try our .NET Memory Profiler, it is designed to locate memory leaks
in .NET applications.

You can download a 30 day trial at: http://www.scitech.se/memprofiler

Hi ,
I have downloaded the trial version but to no avail. Documentation on
profiling the application is so poorly written.What is the kind of
application that is need to be profiled. I want to do memory checking of
the ISAPI Filter dll which runs under the IIS process space. Now do I
Have to profile the running dll or what??
Above all i also tried profiling the IIS ADMIN service and it seems to
me that the application is not doing anything.
"Waiting for profile process to start" is the message which remain
displayed for 4/5 hrs and nothing happened.

Waiting for your reply.

Hi,

Do you have an ISAPI Filter dll written in managed code? Our .NET Memory
Profiler only works with managed .NET processes, which I assumed you were
working with since you mention .net framework in your subject. Anyway, to
perform profiling associated with IIS you should try to profile ASP.NET.

Hi andreas,
I am using visual studio.net -VC++ only as a compiler and my
application (dll)is written in C++ using Win32, MFC, ATL
In a way my application is not written in Managed C++ and is using .net
only for IDE purpose. So I dont think I have a need to profile ASP.net.
Would this tool help me out in detecting memory leak for such
applications.
Thanks and regds,

Hi,

Since your application is not a managed application, you cannot use our
profiler to locate memory leaks.
