 valgrind --version: valgrind-3.14.0
 
Code snippet used in testing:
int main() {
     char *bytes = new char[12];
     (void)bytes;
 }
The project is configured with cmake, here is the CMake snippet:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)
project(Test)
 add_executable(${PROJECT_NAME} "main.cc")
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS} -Wall -Wextra")
The console valgrind gets the following output:

And xml dump looks like this:
Maybe due to a bug of this dashboard system, the monospace part was corrupted, so I pasted the information onto https://pastebin.com/EN54tiuU and it will be valid in the next 1 month.

When I starts the memory analyzer, it successfully executes the valgrind, got the issue count correctly, but turns out to have not extra diagnostics information.

I tried both pacman packed QtCreator and self-installed QtCreator downloaded from download.qt.io, but neither of them works correctly.
