biggest chunk you can allocate using supported API is 65536 bytes. If you
use unpublished api you can allocate up to 16777208 bytes.

I'm using a stl vector. Trying to add data to the vector (push_back).  The
vector I believe is trying to alloc 65k (65536) bytes, and I'm getting a
bad_alloc exeption when the vector tries to allocate that memory.

I checked my free heap space (using MemHeapFreeBytes) and its reporting that
I have 8mbs free (running on treo 700).  

FYI, I really don't need to store 65k in memory, I'm just running some tests
to see what the device is capable of (in this case I'm trying to downloading
a 100k xml document and storing the text in memory).

 

Given that I have enough free heap space, am I running into a limit on the
biggest heap-chunk size?  Or is the bad-alloc simply the result of another
issue I have in my program?

 

Thanks,

Ravi
