Safe C++ Extensions proposal would provide C++ developers with memory-safe implementations of essential data structures and algorithms, along with features that prevent common memory-related errors.
Also, TrapC reuses a few code safety features from C++, notably member functions, constructors, destructors, and the new keyword. TrapC is not the only attempt to deal with memory safety in C or C++.
There are plenty of memory profilers for Python and plenty for C and C++, but up to this point, there hasn’t been a memory profiler that can work with both Python and C/C++ simultaneously, says ...
