Well, please consider all I say with a certain amount of doubt since I'm not a C++ developer (only did one C++ module, the rest was plain C) and favor C (or Obj. C) over C++,
Interesting, Are you doing large projects in C? I know both well and simply cannot imagine developing a large system in C. I know Apache is all in C, but man, I really like my objects;) Obj. C does sound interesting, can you recommend any good sites that can enlighten me more about the subject?
but: Since you seem to like the Apache way why not use it for the GUI as well. The memory pooling and eveything prefixed with 'apr_' is actually part of the Apache Portable Runtime which can be used independent from the Apache webserver (Subversion is a prominent example for such a project). You just need to decide whether memory pools[1] are a good fit for your GUI application.
Why not? Because I had not stop to make the obvious connection;)
[1] For another nice MPS have a look at: http://www.ravenbrook.com/project/mps/doc/2002-01-30/ismm2002-paper/ismm2002.html
yea, the whole memory management thing is a huge can or worms, nice to know that there is the above MPS and apache's to pick from. Sam
