What's the best way? I've had problems getting all my dlls to call my memory management functions. I've resorted to defining a facade global new/delete in every shared library and every executable, which seems to work, but is there a gotcha to this approach? Wouldn't it be possible for C++ to provide a better hook to override this behavior from an executable, i.e. a function to set the memory allocator, and a means to ensure this function is called before any other code is run?

No, nor can there be unless and until we add the concept of such libraries into the C++ Standard. -- Francis Glassborow ACCU Author of 'You Can Do It!' see http://www.spellen.org/youcandoit For project ideas and contributions: http://www.spellen.org/youcandoit/projects [ See http://www.gotw.ca/resources/clcm.htm for info about ] [ comp.lang.c++.moderated.
