 ### To use it in your own project
 
-- Link your code with `visualize-c-memory/malloc-wrapper.c`.
-- Pass `-Wl,--wrap=malloc -Wl,--wrap=free` to gcc when linking, which allows to watch the 
-  heap by wrapping `malloc/free` calls. You can also optionally wrap any of the following
-  functions:
-  ```
-  calloc realloc strdup strndup
-  ```
-  by passing `-Wl,--wrap=<function>` (once for each function).
-
-- Load `visualize-c-memory/visualize-c-memory.py` in GDB when it launches, by adding
+- Build `visualize-c-memory.so` (by running `make` in `src`).
+- Load the `.so` and the python module in GDB by adding
   the following to your `launch.json`:
   ```
