The memory block allocation routines provide a simple yet powerful set of functions for managing a set of memory blocks of fixed size. A set of memory blocks is statically declared with the MEMB() macro. Memory blocks are allocated from the declared memory by the memb_alloc() function, and are deallocated with the memb_free() function.
The following example shows how to declare and use a memory block called "cmem" which has 8 chunks of memory with each memory chunk being 20 bytes large.

Declare a memory block.
This macro is used to staticall declare a block of memory that can be used by the block allocation functions. The macro statically declares a C array with a size that matches the specified number of blocks and their individual sizes.
Example:
MEMB(connections, sizeof(struct connection), 16);
name | The name of the memory block (later used with memb_init(), memb_alloc() and memb_free()). | |
size | The size of each memory chunk, in bytes. | |
num | The total number of memory chunks in the block. |
void * memb_alloc | ( | struct memb_blocks * | m | ) |
char memb_free | ( | struct memb_blocks * | m, | |
void * | ptr | |||
) |
Deallocate a memory block from a memory block previously declared with MEMB().
m | m A memory block previosly declared with MEMB(). | |
ptr | A pointer to the memory block that is to be deallocated. |
void memb_init | ( | struct memb_blocks * | m | ) |
