Hunting memory leaks

0

I'm finding leaked heap blocks by using the following command in WinDbg

!heap –l

With each leaked heap block I get, I'm running to following to get the stack trace.

!heap -p -a leakedheapblock

The following is the result of this command:

address 1c841cc0 found in
_HEAP @ 3930000
  HEAP_ENTRY Size Prev Flags    UserPtr UserSize - state
    1c851cc0 0009 0000  [03]   1c851ce8    0000c - (busy)
    Trace: 84f8

    7c83d97a ntdll!RtlAllocateHeap+0x00000e9f
    1699d238 MyLibrary!malloc+0x0000007a

How can I find the piece of code in 'MyLibrary' that leaks.

There is a nice guide about this in MSDN: Memory Leak Detection Enabling
