Tag trackers

 

Tag trackers are a powerful method of classifying data at runtime.

 

An allocation or group of allocations can be marked with a tag that can later be used to filter allocation events.

 

Tag tracking is implemented using a svlDataTracker C++ class which allows the tag tracking to have automatic scope on the stack, so that cleanup is not required.

 

Even if you're not using C++, do continue reading, as there are API functions you can call to get the same effect.
