valuecalloc :: Storable a => IO (Ptr a)

Like malloc but memory is filled with bytes of value zero.

valuecallocBytes :: Int -> IO (Ptr a)

Like mallocBytes, but memory is filled with bytes of value zero.

valuealloca :: Storable a => (Ptr a -> IO b) -> IO b

alloca f executes the computation f, passing as argument a pointer to a temporarily allocated block of memory sufficient to hold values of type a.

The memory is freed when f terminates (either normally or via an exception), so the pointer passed to f must not be used after this.

valueallocaBytes :: Int -> (Ptr a -> IO b) -> IO b

#

allocaBytes n f executes the computation f, passing as argument a pointer to a temporarily allocated block of memory of n bytes. The block of memory is sufficiently aligned for any of the basic foreign types that fits into a memory block of the allocated size.

The memory is freed when f terminates (either normally or via an exception), so the pointer passed to f must not be used after this.

valueallocaBytesAligned :: Int -> Int -> (Ptr a -> IO b) -> IO b

#

allocaBytesAligned size align f executes the computation f, passing as argument a pointer to a temporarily allocated block of memory of size bytes and aligned to align bytes. The value of align must be a power of two.

The memory is freed when f terminates (either normally or via an exception), so the pointer passed to f must not be used after this.

valuefinalizerFree :: FinalizerPtr a

#

A pointer to a foreign function equivalent to free, which may be used as a finalizer (cf ForeignPtr) for storage allocated with malloc, mallocBytes, realloc or reallocBytes.

valuefree :: Ptr a -> IO ()

#

Free a block of memory that was allocated with malloc, mallocBytes, realloc, reallocBytes, new or any of the newX functions in Foreign.Marshal.Array or Foreign.C.String.

valuemalloc :: Storable a => IO (Ptr a)

#

Allocate a block of memory that is sufficient to hold values of type a. The size of the area allocated is determined by the sizeOf method from the instance of Storable for the appropriate type.

The memory may be deallocated using free or finalizerFree when no longer required.

valuemallocBytes :: Int -> IO (Ptr a)

#

Allocate a block of memory of the given number of bytes. The block of memory is sufficiently aligned for any of the basic foreign types that fits into a memory block of the allocated size.

The memory may be deallocated using free or finalizerFree when no longer required.

valuerealloc :: Storable b => Ptr a -> IO (Ptr b)

#

Resize a memory area that was allocated with malloc or mallocBytes to the size needed to store values of type b. The returned pointer may refer to an entirely different memory area, but will be suitably aligned to hold values of type b. The contents of the referenced memory area will be the same as of the original pointer up to the minimum of the original size and the size of values of type b.

If the argument to realloc is nullPtr, realloc behaves like malloc.

valuereallocBytes :: Ptr a -> Int -> IO (Ptr a)

#

Resize a memory area that was allocated with malloc or mallocBytes to the given size. The returned pointer may refer to an entirely different memory area, but will be sufficiently aligned for any of the basic foreign types that fits into a memory block of the given size. The contents of the referenced memory area will be the same as of the original pointer up to the minimum of the original size and the given size.

If the pointer argument to reallocBytes is nullPtr, reallocBytes behaves like malloc. If the requested size is 0, reallocBytes behaves like free.
