    Hi,
    How can I get information stack and heap size of my program which is written in Qt/C++?
    I want to know memory usage of my program. So I can do something in case of memory overload!

    I see there is "size" command in Linux but I can not find equvielent in windows unfortunatelly! Maybe Qt has something to get this information?

    Regards,
    Mucip:)

      It's platform dependant. on Windows you can use:

      double getUsedMemoryMB()
      {
          PROCESS_MEMORY_COUNTERS pmc;
          GetProcessMemoryInfo(GetCurrentProcess(), &pmc, sizeof(pmc));
          return static_cast<double>(pmc.WorkingSetSize) / static_cast<double>(1024 * 1024);
      }

        Hi,
        Where is windows.h?! QT could not find it?...

          Should be part of the windows compiler. What are you using?

              You're in a severe mess if your MSVC doesn't have/find windows.h!

                      Hi,
                      Finally I got it... Calital letter problem. It must be:

                      #include "Windows.h"
                      #include "Psapi.h"

                      Is returning number STACK or HEAP?... And what is the limit?...

                        @Mucip Windows filing system is case-insensitive, so no idea why you say you require capitals.

                          It's the sum of both

                          And what is the limit?

                          for 64bit systems the limit is just the hardware (how much RAM you have) for 32bit systems is the lower of the hardware memory and 4GB

                            Dear @VRonin
                            Well, what about the 64K STACK limit I remember from old times?...
