#include "aut101.h" void autfreeheap( Pointer, Size ) char *Pointer; unsigned int Size; PARAMETERS
Pointer Pointer to be given back to the heap. Size Size of the block previously allocated by autallocheap. DESCRIPTION
autfreeheap frees a pointer and puts the block back to the heap. Its use is necessary to free memory blocks, previously allocated by autallocheap. RETURN VALUE
autfreeheap returns nothing. EXAMPLE
#include "aut101.h" typedef struct bipointer { struct bipointer *NEXT; void *DATA; } bipointer; bipointer *addbipointer( Data ); void *Data; { bipointer *Bp = (bipointer *)autallocheap( sizeof( bipointer ) ); Bp->DATA = Data; return Bp; } void delbipointer( Bp ); bipointer *Bp; { autfreeheap( Pointer, sizeof( bipointer ) ); } SEE ALSO

AUTALLOCHEAP(3) AUT FUNCTIONS AUTALLOCHEAP(3) NAME
autallocheap - heap memory allocator ORIGIN
This software belongs to the ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM developed by the ASIM team at LIP6 laboratory of Universite Pierre et Marie CURIE, in Paris, France. Web : http://asim.lip6.fr/recherche/alliance/ E-mail : alliance-users@asim.lip6.fr SYNOPSYS
#include "aut101.h" char *autallocheap( Size ) unsigned int Size; PARAMETERS
Size Number of memory bytes to be contiguously allocated DESCRIPTION
autallocheap returns a block of Size bytes length, allocated on the heap. The memory block is set to zero. Its use is strongly encouraged when the Size is very small. RETURN VALUE
autallocheap returns a pointer to a Size bytes long block. ERRORS
"autalloc: alloc error, can't continue !" System break can't be moved anymore, no more memory can be retrieved from the system. EXAMPLE
#include "aut101.h" typedef struct bipointer { struct bipointer *NEXT; void *DATA; } bipointer; bipointer *addbipointer( Data ); void *Data; { bipointer *Bp = (bipointer *)autallocheap( sizeof( bipointer ) ); Bp->DATA = Data; return Bp; } SEE ALSO
