RAM question

[Kherozen]

Hi,
I'm currently working on a program that need to hold specific address in memory and to be sure that it will never be swap by the OS for another process and the solution of doing a while(true) to hold the process is not a working solution here ...
so I want to know how can I reserve and lock memory addresses in C++,

thanks

any memory address are you using is not used by other processes on any win32 and unix operation systems, because the RAM and registry are virtual for each process. If you want to use an address, alloc memory by using new/delete, or C functions malloc|calloc|realloc/free.
for example

void* x = (void*)new char[100];
//you marked 100 bytes as allocated
cout<< &quot;allocated address = &quot;<< (int) x<< endl;

delete[] x;
//you marked 100 bytes as free
