TIFFmemory(3tiff)					 Introduction to Library Functions					 TIFFmemory(3tiff)

NAME
       TIFFmemory,  _TIFFmalloc, _TIFFrealloc, _TIFFfree, _TIFFmemset, _TIFFmemcpy, _TIFFmemcmp - memory-management-related functions for use with
       TIFF files

SYNOPSIS
       #include <tiffio.h>
       tdata_t _TIFFmalloc(tsize_t);
       tdata_t _TIFFrealloc(tdata_t, tsize_t);
       void _TIFFfree(tdata_t);
       void _TIFFmemset(tdata_t, int, tsize_t);
       void _TIFFmemcpy(tdata_t, const tdata_t, tsize_t);
       int _TIFFmemcmp(const tdata_t, const tdata_t, tsize_t);

DESCRIPTION
       These routines are provided for writing portable software that uses libtiff. The routines hide any memory-management-related  issues,  such
       as dealing with segmented architectures found on 16-bit machines.

       _TIFFmalloc  and  _TIFFrealloc  are  used to dynamically allocate and reallocate memory used by libtiff, such as memory passed into the I/O
       routines.

       Memory allocated through these interfaces is released back to the system using the _TIFFfree routine. Memory allocated through one  of  the
       above interfaces can be set to a known value using _TIFFmemset, copied to another memory location using _TIFFmemcpy, or compared for equal-
       ity using _TIFFmemcmp. These routines conform to the equivalent ANSI C routines: memset, memcpy, and memcmp, respectively.
