mem_trim()

void* mem_trim	(	void *	rmem,

Shrink memory returned by mem_malloc().

Parameters

rmem	pointer to memory allocated by mem_malloc the is to be shrinked
newsize	required size after shrinking (needs to be smaller than or equal to the previous size)

Returns

for compatibility reasons: is always == rmem, at the moment or NULL if newsize is > old size, in which case rmem is NOT touched or freed!

void* mem_malloc

(

Allocate a block of memory with a minimum of 'size' bytes.

Parameters

size	is the minimum size of the requested block in bytes.

Returns

mem_calloc()

void* mem_calloc	(	mem_size_t	count,

	)

Contiguously allocates enough space for count objects that are size bytes of memory each and returns a pointer to the allocated memory.

The allocated memory is filled with bytes of value zero.

Parameters

count	number of objects to allocate
size	size of the objects to allocate

Returns

pointer to allocated memory / NULL pointer if there is an error
