NAME
       AnalHeapBase - Obtains the base address of the analysis heap

SYNOPSIS
       #include <cmplrs/atom.anal.h>

       unsigned long AnalHeapBase(
	       void );

DESCRIPTION
       An Atom tool's analysis routine calls the AnalHeapBase routine to obtain the base address of the analysis heap.

       Although  Atom's  default  location  for  the  analysis heap is usually sufficient for most applications, it may sometimes conflict with an
       address range used by the application.

       Normally, an address conflict would result in a call to malloc returning zero to the Atom tool's analysis  routine.    The  routine  should
       check for this case and, if it does occur, ask the tool's user to select another location for the analysis heap.  The -heapbase flag to the
       atom command accomplishes this.

RETURN VALUES
       The AnalHeapBase routine returns an unsigned long containing the base address of the analysis heap.
