alloc


Description:

public void* alloc (size_t block_size)

Allocates a block of memory from the libc allocator.

The block address handed out can be expected to be aligned to at least `1 * sizeof (void*)`.

Since GLib 2.76 this always uses the system malloc implementation internally.

Parameters:

block_size

the number of bytes to allocate

Returns:

a pointer to the allocated memory block, which will be null if and only if mem_size is 0
