Dear reader,

Are there any widely used dynamic analysis tools which are used for
detecting errors in programming, for example null dereferences,
deadlocks, etc..

Some of the tools which I could know are Daikon, *J, MAc JAVA, Delta
Debuggers. Infact all these tools provide runtime information. Are
there any tools like Purify (in C for memory based errors, array out
of bounds etc).

Can any one give information regarding the runtime analysis tools for
error detection in C++ and JAVA.

Thanks,
Vipin

Your question seems to be about C++ and Java. Why are you asking in
comp.lang.c? Both of these languages are off-topic here.

And in general, tools of the type you ask about are not topical
either, regardless of the language. They are not defined by the
language standard.

I would suggest you try the groups news:comp.programming and
news:comp.software-eng.
