usermode memory management

In Kernel space, after we can allocate memory, we can also get a table
from debugger to see what is the size of memory allocated, how many
allocations done, tag of allocation, how many allocations are not
freed/leakage.

Do we have any mechanism that give same type of info in user mode Apps
when I use virtualAlloc() and virtualFree() functions. I want to make
sure I am not causing memory leaks in user mode App and how to check
that.

Thanks.

MFC library has a leak detector in it.

To employ it, only use operator new() for all allocations.

If you will have leaks - then the app will list all leaked blocks to the
debugger output during exit.
