Pointer Checker:
Easily Catch Out-of-Bounds Memory Accesses

This article introduces a powerful new feature called Pointer Checker, which
precisely and easily isolates elusive bugs in programs.
Found in the Intel® C++ Composer XE 2013 product, its integration into the compiler adds powerful functionality in a way that slides seamlessly into build systems.
Clever implementation and powerful error reporting provide precise information about latent program defects.
We are excited that during beta testing of this new feature, customers reported that this tool found numerous defects.
Read this very interesting article for programmers...
