New Comment on "Using Visual Leak Detector"

I installed without a problem. I created a dummy bare-bones 64-bit console application using VS2013 on Windows7. I added only three lines to the main program file created by the wizard. The resulting code looks like this: // TestVLD.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application. // #include "stdafx.h" #include <vld.h> int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[]) { char *testLeak = new char[1000000]; testLeak = nullptr; return 0; } When I run in the debugger, the PDB files for the main program load fine, but there are a bunch of "Cannot find or open the PDB file" messages pertaining to MS built-in OS files in C:\Windows\System32. After those messages, the only report I get from VLD is the following: Visual Leak Detector Version 2.3 installed. No memory leaks detected. Visual Leak Detector is now exiting. The program '[7840] TestVLD.exe' has exited with code 0 (0x0). I would have thought that VLD would have no problem detecting that blatant memory leak. What am I doing wrong?
