Hi all,
I'm having a strange crash using STL vectors. Maybe one of you has
some idea what it is. Note, I'm using the Metrowerks version 6 beta (the
vectors seem to work a lot better under this version). Here is what's
happening:
1) I do some initialization which consists of setting array values
and more importantly, pushing some integers onto an integer vector.
2) Next I do some processing. This creates some vectors, does some
various operations, and returns.
3) Lastly I do the initialization sequence again which seems to
crash during one of the "push_back" operations on the integer vector.
Something like this:
newwallsy.clear();
for(i=0;i<NUM_WALLS;i+)
{
newwallsy.push_back(0);
}
where newwallsy is defined as
vector <int> newwallsy;
and NUM_WALLS is some defined integer value
On the palm, this comes up as a fatal error (the one that displays the reset
button and freezes the palm) and on the emulator it simply gives a
"gremlins" error (an error box that just says "gremlins".
Anyway, since this only crashes the second time I call the routine, I
suspect that I'm running out of memory. Does this sound consistent?
I suppose what I'm looking for is:
1) does this look like an out of memory error?
2) If so, how can I check my free memory to see how much I have?
(right now I'm trying MemHeapFreeBytes, but I'm not sure I'm using it
correctly)
3) If not, does anyone have any ideas what the problem might be?
