/**** dalloc.h --- Memory allocation and deallocation.
*
** Author: Steve Folkes <smf@hermes.mod.uk>
*
**** Commentary:
*
***=== INTRODUCTION =========================================================
*
* This file specifies the interface to a dynamic memory allocation facility.
* All dynamically allocated objects are initialised with zeroes, but
* non-integer typed fields will still need to be initialised explicitly.
*
* If the macro ``PO_DALLOC_DEBUG_ALIGN'' is defined, then extra debugging
* information is added into the space allocated to help detect errors in
* memory management. If this macro is defined, it requires two functions to
* be provided:
*
* void E_dalloc_multi_deallocate
* PROTO_S ((GenericP, CStringP, unsigned, CStringP,
* unsigned));
* void E_dalloc_corrupt_block
* PROTO_S ((GenericP, CStringP, unsigned));
*
* The first function will be called if a block is deallocated more than once.
* It takes the block's address, and the file and line number of the
* deallocation and allocation of the block as arguments. The second function
* is called if a block is corrupt when deallocated. It takes the address of
* the block and the file and line number of the deallocation of the block as
* arguments. Neither of these functions should return.
*
* This debugging mode should not be used on software that is shipped. It has
* machine specific implementations, and may be quite inefficient.
*
***=== MACROS ===============================================================
*
** Macro: ALLOCATE (type)
** Exceptions: XX_dalloc_no_memory
*
* This macro allocates an object of the specified type. A pointer to the
* object is returned.
*
** Macro: ALLOCATE_VECTOR (type, length)
** Exceptions: XX_dalloc_no_memory
*
* This macro allocates a vector of the specified length containing objects of
* the specified type. A pointer to the first element in the vector is
* returned.
*
** Macro: DEALLOCATE (pointer)
** Exceptions:
*
* This macro deallocates the specified pointer. If the pointer is a null
* pointer (``NIL (SomeTypeP)''), this does nothing.
*
***=== EXCEPTIONS ===========================================================
*
** Exception: XX_dalloc_no_memory
*
* This exception is raised if there is not enough memory to allocate an
* object (or a vector of objects).
*
**** Change Log:
* $Log: dalloc.h,v $
* Revision 1.1.1.1 1998/01/17 15:57:45 release
* First version to be checked into rolling release.
*
* Revision 1.2 1994/12/12 11:45:30 smf
* Performing changes for 'CR94_178.sid+tld-update' - bringing in line with
* OSSG C Coding Standards.
*
* Revision 1.1.1.1 1994/07/25 16:06:09 smf
* Initial import of os-interface shared files.
