Or build one yourself.
How many bytes are required to store the pointer?
It depends on the platform... In a 16 bit environment, such as DOS or Windows 3.x, a near pointer is two bytes, while a far pointer is 4 bytes. In a 32 bit environment, such as Win32, a pointer is 4 bytes. In a 64 bit environment, such as Win64, a pointer is 8 bytes. If you want to find out in your particular environment, look at sizeof(ptr), where ptr is declared as a pointer to something. char* ptr; std::cout << sizeof(ptr) << std::endl; Note that the size of the pointer is not the same as the size of the object to which it points. If you looked at sizeof(*ptr), you would get 1.
