Hi there.
I am looking for a speedy and proven-to-work implementation of a memory manager. Specifically, something like a custom heap would be great, where I can allocate a chunk of memory from the operating system beforehand and then redistribute... |

[C++] Source files only

Hi.
Personally, I do prefer the traditional way of having separate source and header files, when programming in C++. However, I have seen people using source files only (well, technically they are using header - .hpp - files only), even... |

Hi.
I have a problem. I'm currently porting a completed projected to Windows and the debugger in MS VS2005 is throwing some breakpoints at various locations throughout the code if I compile in "debug" mode. The error message looks something like t... |

Strange MDX Problem
|
Hi,
I have written a simple tool with C# using .Net 2 and managed DirectX. It is a simple script editor, but visual, so one can create scripts in a 'visual manner' for our game.
However, I'm asking if you could test something for me: The Dir... |

Smart Pointer Design

Hi.
I'm looking for a design of a special smart pointer implementation with C++. Either existing concepts or new ideas may be named.
Unlike other garbage collected designs, this one should be forced to unload an object from memory by using t... |

Custom Memory Allocation

Thank you, Hodgman, for sharing your idea. I have read about this approach and while it certainly deserves its existance (fast and efficient, no fragmentation, dynamic allocation sizes, etc). It does come with a couple of drawbacks, specifically bein... |

C++ Memory Manager

Yep, you are right, but I would like to have it in a custom allocator, so I can have different types of objects use different heaps or deallocate all the objects stored on one of these heaps at once.
Plus, the problem with the built... |

c++ STD::vectormyclass problem.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but in your code snippet newdata appears to be some data on the stack. By pushing it onto your vector you are effectively producing a copy of the variable. Once newdata goes out of scope, the destructor is going... |

Confusion on Reference Counting pointers and arrays.

Your are fine as long as you don't build circular references. To avoid them, boost implements the boost::weak_ptr. Also note, that it's not always a preferable situation if you can't predict when exactly an object is deleted from the heap, since memo... |
