Memory Mapping of C Applications

[javaguru007]

hello to all, i just want to know how to determine the memory mapping or location of certain C Application variables, tables, arrays or linked list in the Memory of a Linux System ?
Because we what to determine if at certain location in memory, a certain dynamic variable or linked list is accidentally overwriting memories allocated for another variable thus destroying its value.

Thanks in advance.

Have you tried using the GNU debugger gdb? I'm no expert, but there's plenty of documentation for it!
