# Windows Heap Visualization · 2005-06-01

You may have noticed the ghosted 'Heap' option under the 'View' menu in OllyDBG. The feature is available only under Windows 95 based OSes and is supposed to display a list of allocated memory blocks. I've written a plug-in, Olly Heap Vis, to provide this missing functionality and more on all modern Windows OSes such as Windows 2000, XP and 2003.

The Olly Heap Vis plug-in provides heap chunk lists, the ability to search the heap, a quick heap jump and finally visualization capabilities through Graphviz. More information and source code is available in the bundled archive.
