Virtual Memory

Hi,

I am trying to allocate heaps of memory and keep on getting memory leaks. HeapAlloc() works, but VirtualAlloc() gives leaks:

Code:

---

                                LPSTR pRead = (LPSTR)VirtualAlloc(NULL, config.dwSendHeap+1, MEM_COMMIT | MEM_RESERVE, PAGE_READWRITE);
                                        VirtualFree(pRead, config.dwSendHeap+1, MEM_DECOMMIT | MEM_RELEASE);

---

Anyone can help to trace the leak?

Thanks.

You're call VirtualFree wrong - with MEM_RELEASE flag the size has to be zero:

Code:

---

VirtualFree(pRead, 0L, MEM_DECOMMIT | MEM_RELEASE);

---

Why do you have four arguments? Typo?

Thanks that works

I got rid of MEM_DOCOMMIT & MEM_RESERVE
