Re: [mosquitto-dev] Compiling mosquitto with Sanitizers like ASAN MSAN

[Basavesh Shivakumar <basavesh.shivakumar@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Greg,

I think I have "successfully" compiled C programs before :)

I just wanted to know if people have tested(fuzz?) mosquitto with sanitizers enabled. I do understand that I didn't give enough information.
Anyway, I think I got it. I was not passing "-fsanitize=address" in all the required stages.

Perhaps a dumb question, but have you successfully compiled a "hello
world" C program?

It might help to post exactly what you did and what happened.  "not been
very successful" is not a good starting place for anyone to give you
advice :-)
