Never mind #58, can we get 2019 support?

... can we get 2019 support?

What's up with this claim? I use VLD with MSVC-2019 with little troubles.
But I figured (the hard way), VLD does not like:

  • cl -Z7 (old-style CodeView info)
  • and the new (?) link -debug:fastlink option.

I tested VLD with clang-cl too (-MTd and -MDd) and it seems to work. Good job!

Works like a charm with VS2019 (s. also https://stackoverflow.com/questions/58439722/how-to-install-visual-leak-detector-on-visual-studio-2019 )

The only thing I had to do: activate the Whole Program Optimization (/GL) (otherwise source code line numbers and function names are not shown)

I could get it working on a vs2019 console project, but when I use it with a win32 exe with attached console, it does not seem to working. How do you check on a win32 exe?
