Hi, I just spent several days trying to get a routine working because I
forgot to allocate 5 bytes of memory, and I was wondering if there are any
programs/documents that tell you what needs to have memory allocated to it.
i.e. Goes through your code and finds things that need memory allocated to
them, or a text that explains things like this...
Just if you didn't have to allocate memory all of the time...or if there was
something that would tell you what you have to allocate memory for and what
you don't :-).
Oh well, if anyone knows of anything like this could they please tell me
since I really need it. :-)

Also, if say you allocate a structure, do you have to do a free at the end
of your program, or will it be totally free'd anyway? I know that you
should, but must you?

Thanks and Happy New Year, cya
