-This document describes some principles that should be respected when
-developing in Babeltrace.
-
-Memory usage :
-
-Since Babeltrace exports a library, we need to make sure that all allocated
-memory is freed, we do not want any memory leaks.
-Since Babeltrace uses the glib, it is necessary to assist a little valgrind
-when trying to identify memory leaks.
-
-libpopt has issues with inconsistency between versions. Namely, libpopt
-0.16 allocates memory for the string returned by poptgetArg(), but not
-libpopt 0.13. Therefore, we are providing a warning suppression file
-that covers this case in the extras/ directory of the source code.
-
-So the proper invocation of Babeltrace with Valgrind is :
-
-G_SLICE=always-malloc G_DEBUG=gc-friendly \
-       valgrind --leak-check=full \
-       --suppressions=path_to_babeltrace_src/extras/valgrind/popt.supp \
-       babeltrace
