NAME¶

PHYSFS_Allocator - PhysicsFS allocation function pointers.

SYNOPSIS¶

#include <physfs.h>

Data Fields¶

int(* Init )(void) void(* Deinit )(void) void *(* Malloc )(PHYSFS_uint64) void *(* Realloc )(void *, PHYSFS_uint64) void(* Free )(void *)

Detailed Description¶

PhysicsFS allocation function pointers. (This is for limited, hardcore use. If you don't immediately see a need for it, you can probably ignore this forever.) You create one of these structures for use with PHYSFS_setAllocator. Allocators are assumed to be reentrant by the caller; please mutex accordingly. Allocations are always discussed in 64-bits, for future expansion...we're on the cusp of a 64-bit transition, and we'll probably be allocating 6 gigabytes like it's nothing sooner or later, and I don't want to change this again at that point. If you're on a 32-bit platform and have to downcast, it's okay to return NULL if the allocation is greater than 4 gigabytes, since you'd have to do so anyhow. See also:

void(* PHYSFS_Allocator::Deinit)(void) Deinitialize your allocator. Can be NULL.¶

void(* PHYSFS_Allocator::Free)(void *) Free memory from Malloc or Realloc.¶

int(* PHYSFS_Allocator::Init)(void) Initialize. Can be NULL. Zero on failure.¶

void*(* PHYSFS_Allocator::Malloc)(PHYSFS_uint64) Allocate like malloc().¶

void*(* PHYSFS_Allocator::Realloc)(void *, PHYSFS_uint64) Reallocate like realloc().¶
