Running Standalone plug-in in Valgrind problem

#1

Has anyone got this working? I’ve just installed the latest valgrind (3.12.0).

I can create a JUCE command line app (Hello World!) from the Projucer and it runs fine in valgrind (there are a bunch or probably false positives but it runs).

A new blank GUI app just get’s stuck on these messages…

--8810-- UNKNOWN mach_msg unhandled MACH_SEND_TRAILER option
--8810-- UNKNOWN mach_msg unhandled MACH_SEND_TRAILER option (repeated 2 times)
--8810-- UNKNOWN mach_msg unhandled MACH_SEND_TRAILER option (repeated 4 times)
--8810-- UNKNOWN mach_msg unhandled MACH_SEND_TRAILER option (repeated 8 times)
--8810-- UNKNOWN mach_msg unhandled MACH_SEND_TRAILER option (repeated 16 times)

I’m hoping to get as far as running standalone plugin app in valgrind but I figured getting the above working first would help!

Any tips would be most welcome.

EDIT: yes, I’m running this on the debug build

#2

I could never get valgrind working on OS X versions >= 10.5. However, it works on Linux. This is the output of the standalone build of the JUCE audio plugin demo:
