for example:
 
  gcc -g -o testprog test.c 
   valgrind --show-reachable=yes --log-file=v.log --leak-check=yes  testprog 
 // testprog is you program
  wait for testprog exit, you have a file name :v.log.pidXXX(xxx is the testprog's pid).
 at the v.log.pidxxx, you can see that:
   definitely lost: 9304 bytes in 18 blocks. // that say : testprog has 18 blocks leak.  :P
  good luck !
