Hi

I wanna see what heap a pointer is in and I know one way I could do it is GetProcessHeaps/HeapWalk but I want to do it to another process and would rather not inject a DLL unless necessary. Therefore I was looking at CreateToolhelp32Snapshot/Heap32ListFirst but it looks like I can only get size of heaps from that, not pointers to the base of the heap or rather the data portion of the heap element. Have I overlooked something ?

if you have the size of the heap can't you take the base address of the program + heapsize1 +heapsize2 + heapsize3 ... +heapsize(n) until you are at the pointers heap?
