Re: [PD] shmem shared memory allocation fails

2013-07-11 Thread Cyrille Henry

Hello,

usually, it's because the program that allocate memorry did crash.
So the memory is not free and can't be allocated by anyone else.

possible solution are :
-reboot
- change mem Id
- manually free the memory :
ipcrm shm 1234 on a terminal
 
cheers

ok thanks for the explanation.
Another question:
If i want to have a flexible memory size, would you recommend to reserve a huge 
amount of space (60) just in case, or could I try to create the shmem 
object in the right size with dynamic patching?

hello,
60 float is 2.4Mo. It's not a huge amount of space.
So 1st solution should work, and should be easier than 2nd solution.

if your question is a subtitle way to ask for an allocate message, then 
well... It's on my list. but i will not have time soon to work on that.
but anyone is free to help ;-)

cheers
