The final nail !!

I managed to lay the final nail to this project, thanx to all you guys especially Sir Bobj.Here are the results that i am gettin, i hope this is what is required:

Good luck to those of you still working on this project and plz don't give up, cause i almost did.

You only passed 11 tests. What about the twelfth?

You shouldn't mess with us like this. There were only 11 tests in the client.tcl file.

Sorry - couldn't resist.

Don't worry Lionel, we have nailed all Sir Bobj's tests and he wish he had included a 12th test.Still we would have nailed it.

The 12th test:

1. Run the windows nt/2000/xp perfmon program
2. Add a trace to 'Working set' to monitor the memory usage of your running server.exe
3. Add the following infinite loop to client.tcl (cut and paste from the stress test)

corba::try {
while {1} {
set acc [$bank open ken ken]
$acc getStatement
$acc destroy
corba::try {
$acc balance
} catch {IDLmg.org/CORBA/OBJECT_NOT_EXIST:1.0 except}
corba::release $acc
}

4. Check in perfmon that the working set is not continually rising in your server - if so you have a memory leak.

Due to time constraints (and the fact that I will not be here) this test will not be carried out, but if you are seriously proud of your server code you will make sure you pass it. My model solution does pass

PS. I understand that the submission page will not be closed before Friday, so you still have time to submit your updates.

Hi,

Does this mean that we can submit ass 3 anytime before Friday this week and it will be ok?

Regards,

Gayle

So if finish the last tests and submit again, as per my other long winded post... before Friday 4th August...

it will be accepted and I can get all 11 tests (or maybe 12) done?

I thought i was out of the woods, well i guese i thought wrong.I had already submitted my assignment and moved on to other assignments which were accummulating.

Anyway the 12th test sounds interesting, i would like to give it a short myself.I looked for the Windows XP perfmon program and i can't find it.If anyone know where to locate it and how to add a trace to the 'working set' to monitor the memory usage of the server.exe pliz send in tips.

start->run (then type perfom)

The rest you should be able to figure out.

Bob

If i go start->run->(then i type perfom/perform/peform) i get an error message sayin: Windows cannot find 'perform', what am i doing wrong?

Typo. Should be perfmon (from performance monitor).

I changed my client as indicated above by Sir Bobj and i run my server.exe as usual together with the client.tcl which has an infinite loop.

While the client.tcl and the server are running in a infinite loop, I run the perfmon, i add all memory object counters(i.e Available Bytes/KB/MB/Cache Bytes/Page Faults).I don't know how to interpret this.All the lines of the memory object are constant, that is they are all straight horizontally, they are not going up or down.

What does this mean?.Do i have memory leak or not?.

Clear all the counters and go to Process - Working Set and then choose your server. If it goes up and up then you have a memory leak. If it stays horizontal you are a-ok.

Thanx trautw my man, now i can see how my server is performing.The blue line which represents my server is constant on the y-axis(horizantally).It forms a cross with the vertical redline.

I think my programme has no memory leaks(Correct me if i am wrong).I guess my programme wacked Sir Bobj's 12th test after all.Lets see if he is gonna come up with a 13th test.
