It's pretty hard. It's easier to prevent it theoretically analyzing your code design. Why are you asking about it? Any memory leak problems so far? In .NET, preventing memory leaks is much easier...

You would have to first determine that you have a memory leak. I strongly doubt that you actually do.

Its typically a knife and fork job , going through things methodically .

Typically I use perfmon to try and see if I have a leak . It stops you looking at the detail too early . Once you know you have a leak then the above articles will help you trace . Its typically a long winded process . In the past I have had most of my memory leaks around talking to unmanaged code , but not all .
