Anybody has written functions overriding new and delete to detect memory leaks?

Hmmm.

Microsoft have... You get that for free when you make a Debug version of your program in MSVC...

Bung in a #include and the following early in your program:

_CrtSetDbgFlag( _CrtSetDbgFlag(0)|_CRTDBG_LEAK_CHECK_DF );

The CRTDBG stuff has a wealth of useful things for detecting stuff like that.


For more advanced third party stuff, look at BoundsChecker from NuMega
