Is the a VS2005 C++ compiler flag like the Xmx???M java flag so I can limit the heap size of my application running on Windows.
I need to limit the heap size so I can fill the memory to find out the current free memory. (The code also runs on an embedded system where this is the best method to get the memory usage)
You might want to look into whether the gflags utility (in the Windows Debugging Tools) can do this. It can do a lot of other interesting things with the heap of native applications.
