snew README snew is a shared memory new for C++ the SGI workstations. To compile sample type: make -f Makefile.sample To turn sharedmemory on and off edit Makefile.sample commenting or uncommenting the C++FLAGS line with -DSHARED_MEMORY. When the shared memory flag is not set the snew will behave as a tradtional new. With the shared memory flag set snew will allocate from shared memory while new will allocate in the traditional way. Remember to use sdelete to delete memory allocated with snew and delete to allocate memory allocated with new. any problems send email to: mpapka@eecs.uic.edu If you get compile time errors due to this library or run-time errors please email the error message and the code fragment in question.
