Board index » delphi » FastMM problem with runtime packages

I'm trying to use FastMM in my application, which consists of a main exe
and a couple of dynamically loaded dlls, all of which are built with
runtime packages.
I put the FastMM4.pas unit in all projects' uses clauses and took care
to set the correct patching order for madExcept, which is used in the
exe, but not in the dlls.
I enabled the AssumeMultiThreaded, ShareMM and AttemptToUseSharedMM
conditional defines for all projects involved.
The problem is that main exe loads and runs fine, but the dlls refuse to
hook to shared FastMM. When main exe calls LoadLibrary, each of the dlls
complains with the message "Cannot install FastMM4 - Another memory
manager is already installed".
What did I miss?
TIA,

Hi Aleksander,
between all the DLLs, so the first DLL (or main exe) to install FastMM will
change the MM and the others will fail. I will think about a suitable
solution to the problem, in the meantime I suggest you just disable this
check in CheckCanInstallMemoryManager.
Thanks for the feedback.
