[comp.lang.c++] Memory Management in C++

lon@CERC.UTEXAS.EDU (Lon Fisher) (10/11/90)

	I am interested in writing a memory manager for some high speed
data structure classes.  If anyone has a sample memory manager in C++, that
would be willing to let me look at it, I would appreciate it.

	A couple of questions on memory managers in general.  First, could
could a memory manager be incorporated into a memory management object and
have all objects which use it either inherit or name it as a friend.  It
would reduce code size and make the memory manager more useable.  However,
would the time in routing through another object, negate any benefits in
speed?  If you have any comments or thoughts on this subject, I would be
interested to hear them.

	Finally, if anyone would be interested in perusing my data structure
classes (SLL, DLL, B-Tree, Threaded Tree, and AVL Tree).  You can contact
me at the e-mail address listed below.  Unfortunately, I can't set up an
ftp route for anonymous users.  Therefore, I'll have to send them via e-mail.
Currently, I am finishing versioning the data structures and hope to have
them available in a few weeks.  The third version may include the memory
manager, if feasable.

	Thanks for your attention.
