BLISTRFRG (Clipper Summer '87)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Function : Clipper S'87 fragmentation string
Syntax : cValue = BLISTRFRG([cString])
Return : Fragmentation as a string
This function returns a string containing a summary of Clipper's dynamic
memory to show the degree of fragmentation. Each character position
represents up to 512 bytes, and adjacent equal characters represent
contiguous blocks larger than 512 bytes.
The optional parameter is a five character string in the form "ffuua" as
described below. The first two characters (ff) are used to represent
free blocks and the next two characters (uu) to represent used blocks,
with the final character (a) used to represent the next allocation
point. The returned string contains a map of both the near heap and the
far heap (FREE POOL), separated by a ',' character. The layout and
meaning of the display is detailed in the discussion of the function
BLIDISFRG().
Example :
* Get the string showing memory fragmentation
* Use 'f' for all free blocks, 'u' for all used
*
TMPSTRFRG = BLISTRFRG("ffuua")
? "The state of dynamic memory is currently"
? TMPSTRFRG
