内存分配
function
<cstdlib>void * malloc ( size_t size );
Allocate memory block
Allocates a block of size bytes of memory, returning a pointer to the beginning of the block.
The content of the newly allocated block of memory is not initialized, remaining with indeterminate values.
The type of this pointer is always void*, which can be cast to the desired type of data pointer in order to be dereferenceable.
If the function failed to allocate the requested block of memory, a null pointer is returned.
The content of the newly allocated block of memory is not initialized, remaining with indeterminate values.
Parameters
- size
- Size of the memory block, in bytes.
Return Value
On success, a pointer to the memory block allocated by the function.The type of this pointer is always void*, which can be cast to the desired type of data pointer in order to be dereferenceable.
If the function failed to allocate the requested block of memory, a null pointer is returned.
realloc
function
<cstdlib>void * realloc ( void * ptr, size_t size );
Reallocate memory block
free was made, and a NULL pointer is returned.
The type of this pointer is void*, which can be cast to the desired type of data pointer in order to be dereferenceable.
If the function failed to allocate the requested block of memory, a NULL pointer is returned.
Parameters
- ptr
- Pointer to a memory block previously allocated with malloc, calloc or realloc to be reallocated.
If this is NULL, a new block is allocated and a pointer to it is returned by the function. - size
- New size for the memory block, in bytes.
If it is 0 and ptr points to an existing block of memory, the memory block pointed by ptr is deallocated and a NULL pointer is returned.
Return Value
A pointer to the reallocated memory block, which may be either the same as the ptr argument or a new location.The type of this pointer is void*, which can be cast to the desired type of data pointer in order to be dereferenceable.
If the function failed to allocate the requested block of memory, a NULL pointer is returned.
calloc
function
<cstdlib>void * calloc ( size_t num, size_t size );
Allocate space for array in memory
Allocates a block of memory for an array of num elements, each of them size bytes long, and initializes all its bits to zero.
The effective result is the allocation of an zero-initialized memory block of (num * size) bytes.
The type of this pointer is always void*, which can be cast to the desired type of data pointer in order to be dereferenceable.
If the function failed to allocate the requested block of memory, a NULL pointer is returned.
The effective result is the allocation of an zero-initialized memory block of (num * size) bytes.
Parameters
- num
- Number of elements to be allocated.
- size
- Size of elements.
Return Value
A pointer to the memory block allocated by the function.The type of this pointer is always void*, which can be cast to the desired type of data pointer in order to be dereferenceable.
If the function failed to allocate the requested block of memory, a NULL pointer is returned.

free
function
<cstdlib>void free ( void * ptr );
Deallocate space in memory
realloc is deallocated, making it available again for further allocations.
Notice that this function leaves the value of ptr unchanged, hence it still points to the same (now invalid) location, and not to the null pointer.
