55.3. C/C++ Code Analysis Tool

This tool is similar to the Managed Code Analysis Tool, but works for unmanaged code. To activate it simply go to your C++ project's properties window, look for the Code Analysis node inside the Configuration Properties, and select Yes for the Enable Code Analysis for C/C++ on Build. Every time you compile your project, the tool will intercept the process and attempt to analyze each execution path.

It will help you detect crashes that are otherwise hard to find with other techniques like debugging that are very time consuming. It's able to detect memory leaks, uninitialized variables, pointer management problems, and buffer over/under runs.
