Objet : Re: Memory management and big array in PowerBASIC or QuickBASIC :
Help
 
:In fact i have to manage 2 BIG array in memory (process result of file
:database). I can not schedule the size will be used by the process for each
:array (result of process of  input files). How to manage the memory ? I can
:not make a choice like 1/3 2/3 or 1/2 1/2 of the FULL availble memory to be
:divide for each array. for example : If i book and divide the FULL memory
:like 1/2 1/2 and if the first array is very small and the second become
very
:large i will be stop because of lack of memory in the second array and
waste
:memory for the first.
:
:In Pascal you can create a PTR variable, if you need a new one, just create
:by NEW ...
:
:I don't want to use Pascal ... I FEEL there is a solution to this problem
:... don't you
:
:Me to, i don't like to waste memory place for nothing, particulary in this
:case !!!

:thanks

:regard
