Dennis,
with DeXter release, we have lets say FastMM 4.xy.
After that we have an update of FastMM. How is that
incorporated? Will Borland do that at once or must
I have to do a "uses FastMM;" in .dpr again?

Hi Max

I guess this is a question for Pierre.

Best regards

You'll probably have to wait for an update or perhaps an unofficial patch.
Usually Borland don't add new features in a service pack, so I would say
it's unlikely that there will be interim updates to the memory manager
unless a bug is found. Besides, the core of FastMM (getmem, freemem and
reallocmem) hasn't changed in months, since I have already tuned it to
exhaustion. At the moment my spare time goes toward improving
"FullDebugMode", but that doesn't affect the DeXter MM.

Most of the neat features in the public version (except "FullDebugMode") are
in the new getmem.inc, but if there's some really nice functionality that
comes along in the public version you can always add FastMM4.pas to the .dpr
as before.

As long as Borland wants me to, I am willing to maintain and enhance the
Win32 memory manager... and if they need a memory manager for Delphi64, they
know who they can call Smile. If there's anything in particular that you would
like to see in future Delphi memory managers, I would suggest you fire up QC
and log it.

Regards,
Pierre
