Valgrind for iPhone

A friend of mine over at Taptu Mobile Search pointed me to Valgrind. Valgrind is a debugging and profiling tool, and was ported to OS X by Greg Parker. It works for iPhone development too (simulator only) with a simple mod. We haven’t used it in anger yet at Airsource, but we’ll be sure to report results when we do….

    I got an iPod touch a couple of days ago but I think I had better bought an iPhone :(

    That mod doesn’t seem to work for me. The application launches in the simulator, but the call to execl() is returning -1 with errno = 2 (ENOENT).

    Suggestions?

    Naturally, 2 minutes after posting I found the problem.

    My path to valgrind was /usr/local/bin/valgrind rather than /usr/local/valgrind/bin/valgrind.
