memory usage

[Andreas Stenius]

Hi,

Is there any standard c/c++ function to retrieve a current applications
memory usage (for benchmarking purposes)?

Regards,
Andreas

Nope, no such standard C++ function exists.

Nope, no such standard C++ function exists.

Doh!
Any sugestions as to any alternatives, or how to perform memory usage
benchmarks?

What I what to achieve is to see how much ram different modules uses in
my app.

Thanks for any help/pointers,
Andreas

Check your implementation. It's not unusual to have some non-standard
extension provided to tell how much free memory you have left.

Hey each implementation provides some kind of API to determine memory usage etc
details.
Check your vendor's compiler documentation.

Nope, you'll have to use platform specific code.
