LBER_MEMORY(3)         C LIBRARY FUNCTIONS         LBER_MEMORY(3)

NAME

     ber_memalloc,  ber_memcalloc,  ber_memrealloc,  ber_memfree,
     ber_memvfree - LBER memory allocators

LIBRARY

     OpenLDAP LBER (liblber, -llber)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <lber.h>

     void *ber_memalloc(ber_len_t bytes);

     void *ber_memcalloc(ber_len_t nelems, ber_len_t bytes);

     void *ber_memrealloc(void *ptr, ber_len_t bytes);

     void ber_memfree(void *ptr);

     void ber_memvfree(void **vec);

DESCRIPTION

     These  routines  are  used  to  allocate/deallocate   memory
     used/returned  by the Lightweight BER library as required by
     lber-encode(3)    and    lber-decode(3).     ber_memalloc(),
     ber_memcalloc(),  ber_memrealloc(),  and  ber_memfree()  are
     used exactly like the standard malloc(3),  calloc(3),  real-
     loc(3),    and    free(3)   routines,   respectively.    The
     ber_memvfree() routine is used to free a  dynamically  allo-
     cated  array  of pointers to arbitrary dynamically allocated
     objects.
