To optimize the memory usage , I am using a huge block of memory for
my system and
then dividing the initial chunk in to 4 pools.

I have overloaded new and delete such that memory from a particular
pool can be taken and
freed .
As far as possible memory can be taken from particular pool and memory
is freed (comlete pool as whole ) when pool is completely used.

By overlaoding new and delete , I can pass the information about a
particular pool say:

CMyClass* myClass =3D new (POOL_1) CMyClass;
...
delete(POOL_1) s;

But the problem is while using the abtsract containers say vector, I
am not able the POOL related information till new and delete which are
used inside allocator.

I am using the userdefined allocator :
vector<int,MySpace::MyAllocator<int> > v;

so that overloaded version of new and delete are called , but it is
not possible to pass the POOL related information in case of
containers .

Any suggestions ?

I've never tried this myself so I don't know if it's possible, but
couldn't you add the pool as a parameter to the allocator?

template<class T, int P =3D 0>
class MyAllocator
{
const int pool_;

public:
MyAllocator() : pool_(P) { /* ... */ }

};

And you could use it something like:

vector<int,MySpace::MyAllocator<int, 2> > v;

or, if the default pool is ok then just

vector<int,MySpace::MyAllocator<int> > v;
