Heaps
A heap is a memory store in which the C++ new operator can create and store objects. In the CommonPoint application system, the ordinary new operator creates objects on the default heap associated with the current task; when a task is created, a default heap is created for it. Applications that must allocate many objects at once or share data among tasks can explicitly create special heaps and allocate from them using a special new operator.
