set_new_handler用法

原型：_PNH _set_new_handler( _PNH pNewHandler );

 

MSDN解释：Transfer control to your error-handling mechanism if the new operator fails to allocate memory.

如果new操作符分配内存失败，则转向_set_new_handler所指定的错误处理机制中去处理。

 

实例：In this example, when the allocation fails, control is transferred to MyNewHandler.

The argument passed to MyNewHandler is the number of bytes requested.

The value returned from MyNewHandler is a flag indicating whether allocation should be retried:

a nonzero value indicates that allocation should be retried, and a zero value indicates that allocation has failed.

 

当内存分配失败的时候，调用MyNewHandler. 传递给MyNewHandler的参数是需要的bytes字节数.

而MyNewHandler得返回值代表内存分配是否需要被重新调用。

如果返回0，则表示告诉new操作符分配内存失败；

返回非0，则表示告诉new操作符继续尝试分配内存。

 

#include <stdio.h>
#include <new.h>
#define BIG_NUMBER 0x1fffffff

int coalesced = 0;

int CoalesceHeap()
{
   coalesced = 1;  // Flag RecurseAlloc to stop 
   // do some work to free memory
   return 0; //表明分配内存失败，程序退出，如果return 1的程序不断的再重新分配内存
}
// Define a function to be called if new fails to allocate memory.
int MyNewHandler( size_t size )
{
   printf("Allocation failed. Coalescing heap./n");

   // Call a function to recover some heap space.
   return CoalesceHeap();
}

int RecurseAlloc() {
   int *pi = new int[BIG_NUMBER];
   if (!coalesced)
      RecurseAlloc();
   return 0;
}

int main()
{
   // Set the failure handler for new to be MyNewHandler.
   _set_new_handler( MyNewHandler );
   RecurseAlloc();
}
