I am in the process of designing a conservative garbage collector fo C ++. As one of the requirement of conservative garbage collection, I will have to scan through the static memory area and look for probable pointers into the heap.
I am stuck in the implementation part, where I am not very sure on which physical address the static elements are stored for X86 machines. Is the address of the static area stored in some processor register? If yes how can I access it in a C++ program? Thanks! _______________________________________________ help-gplusplus mailing list help-gplusplus@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gplusplus
