XtMalloc(3Xt) MIT X11R4 XtMalloc(3Xt) Name XtMalloc, XtCalloc, XtRealloc, XtFree, XtNew, XtNewString - memory management functions Syntax char *XtMalloc(size); Cardinal size; char *XtCalloc(num, size); Cardinal num; Cardinal size; char *XtRealloc(ptr, num); char *ptr; Cardinal num; void XtFree(ptr); char *ptr; type *XtNew(type); type; String XtNewString(string); String string; Arguments num Specifies the number of bytes or array elements. ptr Specifies a pointer to the old storage or to the block of storage that is to be freed. size Specifies the size of an array element (in bytes) or the number of bytes desired. string Specifies a previously declared string. type Specifies a previously declared data type. Description The functions returns a pointer to a block of storage of at least the specified size bytes. If there is insufficient memory to allocate the new block, calls The function allocates space for the specified number of array elements of the specified size and initializes the space to zero. If there is insufficient memory to allocate the new block, calls The function changes the size of a block of storage (possibly moving it). Then, it copies the old contents (or as much as will fit) into the new block and frees the old block. If there is insufficient memory to allocate the new block, calls If ptr is NULL, allocates the new storage without copying the old contents; that is, it simply calls The function returns storage and allows it to be reused. If ptr is NULL, returns immediately. returns a pointer to the allocated storage. If there is insufficient memory to allocate the new block, calls is a convenience macro that calls with the following arguments specified: ((type *) XtMalloc((unsigned) sizeof(type)) returns a pointer to the allocated storage. If there is insufficient memory to allocate the new block, calls is a convenience macro that calls with the following arguments specified: (strcpy(XtMalloc((unsigned) strlen(str) + 1), str)) See Also X Window System Toolkit: The Complete Programmer's Guide and Specification, Paul J.
