.TH stralloc_ready 3 .SH NAME stralloc_ready \- provide space in a stralloc .SH SYNTAX .B #include int \fBstralloc_ready\fP(stralloc* \fIsa\fR,size_t \fIlen\fR); .SH DESCRIPTION stralloc_ready makes sure that \fIsa\fR has enough space allocated to hold \fIlen\fR bytes: If \fIsa\fR is not allocated, stralloc_ready allocates at least \fIlen\fR bytes of space, and returns 1. If \fIsa\fR is already allocated, but not enough to hold \fIlen\fR bytes, stralloc_ready allocates at least \fIlen\fR bytes of space, copies the old string into the new space, frees the old space, and returns 1. Note that this changes \fIsa\fR.s. If stralloc_ready runs out of memory, it leaves \fIsa\fR alone and returns 0. .SH "RETURN VALUE" 1 for success, 0 on memory allocation failure. .SH "SEE ALSO" stralloc_readyplus(3)
