Classification: UNCLASSIFIED Caveats: NONE Thanks Mark! I was working with /proc/self/stat and getting to the vSize value using system() and an awk command, but was having trouble getting the value back into a variable in my program...always getting 0 which was the value passed back from system() ... 0 = success. I'll give this a try. My Google searches didn't come up with anything this good.
