Guardmalloc, what are these warnings and how can I get rid of them?

GuardMalloc: The allocation will be allocated on 16 byte boundaries. GuardMalloc: - Some buffer overflows cannot be seen. GuardMalloc: - Applications using vector instructions (like SSE or Altivec) should work. GuardMalloc: GuardMalloc version 18 (gdb)

all sudden guardmalloc messages appear in the console window. What is the reason and how can I get rid of it? Mainly because the app behaves strangely after it appears.

I am assuming you have intentionally enabled GuardMalloc to look for memory errors? If so, they appear simply because GuardMalloc is being used (as shown by http://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man3/guardmalloc.3.html ).



What do you mean "acting strange"? What symptoms appear?

You are using libgmalloc bundled application . These are really not warnings; they just tell you that it is being used. It's really not a programming question ...
