stack

Let's say we have a class: class Class1 { int i = 1; } and we have a variable: Class1 ob1 = new Class1(); Does a reference itself stored in a variable ob1 store the information that it refers to an object of Class1 ? Does the part of the heap where Class1 is stored store the information that it is of Class1 type? How does logically looks like this information? It's a string like application1.Class1 or a reference to some reference types pool? If you can recommend the source of such information I'll be very grateful for providing it I can't find it in the reference book. Does a reference itself

Is the following code guaranteed by the standard to work(assuming st is not empty)? #include <vector> #include <stack> int main() { extern std::stack<int, std::vector<int> > st; int* end = &st.top() + 1; int* begin = end - st.size(); std::vector<int> stack_contents(begin, end); } ronag Yes. std::stack is just a container adapter. You can see that .top() is actually (§23.3.5.3.1) reference top() { return c.back(); } Where c is the container, which in this case is a std::vector Which means that your code is basically translated into: extern std::vector<int> st; int* end = &st.back() + 1; int*

I am working with a multithreaded embedded application. Each thread is allocated stack sizes based on its functionality. Recently we found that one of the thread corrupted the stack by defining a array of local variables that was more than the stack size. The OS is uItron. My solution, I registered a timer for 10 mS, and this timer will check for stack corruption. Stack corruption checking method, 1. Initialize the stack memory with some unique pattern (I use 0x5A5A5A5A) 2. Check from the time if top of the stack memory is still 0x5A5A5A5A My question, Is there a better way to check this type

So I know that there exists 2 memory areas: Stack and Heap . I also know that if you create a local variable it will live in the Stack, not in the heap. Stack will grow as we push data into it as in: Now I will try to pass the confusion I am having to you: For example this simple Java Code: public class TestClass { public static void main(String[] args) { Object foo = null; Object bar = null; } } is translated into this byte code: public static void main(java.lang.String[]); Code: Stack=1, Locals=3, Args_size=1 0: aconst_null 1: astore_1 2: aconst_null 3: astore_2 4: return LineNumberTable:
