22 @deftypefn Replacement void* xmalloc (size_t)
24 Allocate memory without fail. If @code{malloc} fails, this will print
25 a message to @code{stderr} (using the name set by
26 @code{xmalloc_set_program_name},
27 if any) and then call @code{xexit}. Note that it is therefore safe for
28 a program to contain @code{#define malloc xmalloc} in its source.
30 @end deftypefn
32 @deftypefn Replacement void* xrealloc (void *@var{ptr}, size_t @var{size})
33 Reallocate memory without fail. This routine functions like @code{realloc},
34 but will behave the same as @code{xmalloc} if memory cannot be found.
36 @end deftypefn
38 @deftypefn Replacement void* xcalloc (size_t @var{nelem}, size_t @var{elsize})
40 Allocate memory without fail, and set it to zero. This routine functions
41 like @code{calloc}, but will behave the same as @code{xmalloc} if memory
42 cannot be found.
44 @end deftypefn
46 @deftypefn Replacement void xmalloc_set_program_name (const char *@var{name})
48 You can use this to set the name of the program used by
49 @code{xmalloc_failed} when printing a failure message.
51 @end deftypefn
53 @deftypefn Replacement void xmalloc_failed (size_t)
55 This function is not meant to be called by client code, and is listed
56 here for completeness only. If any of the allocation routines fail, this
57 function will be called to print an error message and terminate execution.
