BLIMEMAVL() Get CA-Clipper total free dynamic memory
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Function : Get CA-Clipper total free dynamic memory
Syntax : nlValue = BLIMEMAVL()
Return : Total available memory in bytes.
This function returns the total dynamic memory available in bytes in the
CA-Clipper free pool. Dynamic memory is the memory used by CA-Clipper to
store all temporary values of variables and buffers while an application is
running.
Note that the CA-Clipper Summer '87 free pool is allocated from DOS on an
'as-needed' basis, and unless MEMORY(0), BLIMEMPAK(-1) or BLIMEMBLK() are
executed (which cause CA-Clipper to allocate all available memory to the
free pool from DOS), the value returned by this function will reflect only
the currently allocated free pool.
Example:
* Get the total available memory
*
? "There are", BLIMEMAVL()
?? " bytes available in CA-Clipper's free pool"
