Name        : perl-Test-LeakTrace
Product     : Fedora 14
Version     : 0.13
Release     : 1.fc14
URL         : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Test-LeakTrace
Summary     : Traces memory leaks
Description :
'Test::LeakTrace' provides several functions that trace memory leaks.
This module scans arenas, the memory allocation system, so it can detect
any leaked SVs in given blocks.  *Leaked SVs* are SVs which are not
released after the end of the scope they have been created. These SVs
include global variables and internal caches. For example, if you call a
method in a tracing block, perl might prepare a cache for the method.
Thus, to trace true leaks, 'no_leaks_ok()' and 'leaks_cmp_ok()' executes
a block more than once.
