[Dynapi-Dev] a couple of tools

[Doug M. <do...@cr...>]

I have found the following tools to be indeispensible when working with =
(and debuggin) DynAPI

(WIN32 - sorry)

1) FreeMemPro =
http://www.downloads.3bsoftware.com/Downloads/freemem/freemem.html

    This is a ram 'defragmenter' for Window 32.. the way it works is it =
allocates as much ram from windows as it can, which forces windows to =
swap unused data from physical ram to swap space.
Then it releases this ram using proper memory management resulting in =
more free ram.
It will keep doing this until it gets as close to the specified amount =
of free ram as it can.

On my Win98 system which has 128 megs of ram, I ask it to free up 128 =
,egs and it gives me
80 to 100 megs free ram.. Which is damned handy when one has been =
re-loading the same DynAPI app over and over again..=20

It's not a cure for memory leaks but it make development much easier, =
and reduces crashes/reboots.

2) Taskinfo http://www.iarsn.com/download.html
    This program is for Window 9X and closly resembles the Task manager =
in Windows 2000, with a little extra functionality.

You can find out how much ram and CPU time each process is using, what =
files the process has open and much more.

In fact it was because of my constant observation of running processes =
that I discovered last week that I had caught a trojan.. :-)
" what in the hell is this Wininit.exe?!? and hey! I've never seen =
DNETC.exe before.. "

Just a couple of tools to hopefully make your life easier..

Later
Doug

Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Pay attention Robert, Pascal, Admins....

Yeah, I can add the example to cvs.  I noticed this a while back - in
IE 5, you have to hit reload for the buttonimage to show up the first
time.  I'll add that to the sourceforge bugs.
