Abstract
Effective microcontroller programming in C++ mandates dependable memory management beyond that offered by the language’s default mechanisms. Some of the countless situations in microcontroller programming that require customized memory management include dynamic creation polymorphic objects, using STL containers and mapping hardware devices are. This chapter describes memory management methods that are robust and reliable enough to perform these tasks while adhering to the strict constraints of limited microcontroller memory resources.
