I wonder if anyone has a generic replacement for malloc and free which make
use of GlobalAlloc and GlobalFree?  I did those up, but for some reason, the
memory thus allocated doesn't seem to be getting released properly, even
though I am careful to execute one free for each malloc.  As an offshoot of
this, my memory slowly goes down in Windows until I terminate my app, at
which time it all appears to come back. Any ideas?  Working procs?   Please
email me and I will summarize, as I know of at least two other people who
want this stuff.  I suspect there're more...
Thanks,

P.S.  My attempt follows (assume appropriate #include stuff):


void *mymalloc(size_t bytes)
{
   void *p;
   HANDLE h;
   h = GlobalAlloc(GMEM_FIXED | GMEM_ZEROINIT,(DWORD)bytes);
   if (h)
      p = (void *)GlobalLock(h);
   else
      p = NULL;
   return p;
}

void myfree(void *p)
{
   HANDLE h;
   if (NULL != p)
   {
      h = (GLOBALHANDLE) LOWORD((LONG) p);
      GlobalUnlock(h);
      GlobalFree(h);
   }
   return;
}
