Object Memory Size 3

[alan232]

Hi All;

Does anybody know how to get the physical memory size of a terminate and stay resident object?

Just curious,
Thanks,
Alan

Open a DOS window, type MEM/c the TSR should be visible in its size. If you need to do that programatically in VFP, someone may have a solution for that, but if you're looking for a one-off, this will do it.


Best Regards,
Scott

Start with something like this:

!MEM/c > c:\mem.txt
lcMem = FILETOSTR("c:\mem.txt")

That gives you a memvar holding the information you need. All you have to do is use AT() and SUBSTR() to find the size of the TSR.

Hi ;

I get a nice print out--but nothing with the name of my service. Also, starting and stoping the service does not seem to change the amount of free memory available--so I really still don't know.

Ideas?
Alan

you work with windows service, it has mothing to do with DOS tsr.
Get a copy of sysinternals process explorer, it's free.
