Re: failmalloc equivalent for MacOS X
site_archiver@lists.apple.com Delivered-To: darwin-dev@lists.apple.com Hello Cem, Le 10 avr. 08 à 13:43, Army Research Lab a écrit : If someone wants to test my libfailmalloc, just ask me for a copy.

I noticed the message below from David, and it occurred to me that this might be something to build into libgmalloc. I looked around on Apple's site for the sources, and then out on the web in general, but I didn't find them; are they Apple proprietary, or am I just blind? I could release my libfailmalloc ... but even I get my application resist against allocation failure, Apple's frameworks (OpenGL, QuickTime, CoreVideo, ...) are not "memory allocation problem" safe. I stream video decoded with QuickTime to the GPU and I have crash in QuickTime codec or in OpenGL driver (texture management part)... So for my application, the only solution is to not come close the 2GB limit (for a 32 bit app). If I detect an allocation failure, I immediately try to free as much memory as possible but it does not prevent crash. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
