Are Microsoft's malloc() routines broken? Today I found that a structure being allocated in one file was being placed in a character array in another file. Moving the array to the start of the file solved that problem, but I'm wondering what else is going on that I should worry about. I'm seriously worried about realloc(), just repeatedly calling it with different sizes eventually locks up the machine. This is a true-blue AT, using the default memory model (small, I believe). On a related topic, didn't a replacement for malloc() float by a while ago (>6 months)? I thought I saved it, but it seems to have vanished. Anyone out there care to email me a copy?
