System APIs Supported During Memory Error Analysis

The following table lists all the 32-bit and 64-bit Windows* OS memory management functions currently supported by the Intel Inspector during memory error analysis. Check the Release Notes to see if support for new APIs has been recently added.

If an API is not supported, the Intel Inspector may report false positive (non-existent) memory problems in functions using the API.
