using up ram when saving to file...
Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Programming/using up ram when saving to file...
| ||
| I have a game program running that saves player data at reqular intervals, this is data that would be used in later sessions. An issue I have run into is that with the save function active , Task Manager shows memory usage increasing, which I believe is a memory leak symptom. Am I opening and closing the file correctly...? dir$="players\"+p\user$+"\"+p\name$+"\cords.dat" fileout=WriteFile(dir$) WriteString(fileout,p\cord$) CloseFile(fileout) dir$="" fileout=0 Any help on why memory use would increase by using this function would be welcome. BB3D version 1.98 |

| My initial thought is that Windows might be storing the file in RAM and never bothering to clear the RAM until necessary. However, I will look into this somemore... |

| Yeah I was wondering if windows is holding it in ram... |
