How to get the memory usage using C++

[fantasticamir]

Guys,

I have a program that has some stages. I am looking for a function/method or anything that tell me how much each part of the code (or even specific class) consumes memory.

Please help me out with any type of method by which I can measure the used memory of my code or...

I know top and ps ... I need a some functions, since I need to insert it into my program.

Thanks,

Amir.

Use one of the many memory profilers/debuggers out there, like valgrind, for example. top and ps monitor the resource utilisation of an entire process and can not peer into the different parts of your program.

well I can't, i am running my program on a server that I have no access to...:-( any more help?

There isn't a way, sorry. Although you can manually eyeball a section of code, and assuming the platform you are working with, make a good guess on how much memory will be needed. Depends.

Why don't you give us some context? What do you really want?

Well run a test of it on your local machine and run a profiler on it there.

Run the task manager or download SysMon and run that on your server if it's windows they report program memory usage. (I would assume that Linux has a similar program but wouldn't know what it is.)

Don't be so closed minded it sounds like you will need to be creative to get the statistics you want.
