56 Expand a pointer to be a particular size.
57 Note that this version of Realloc has an extra parameter that decides
58 whether to free the passed in storage on allocation failure or if the
59 new size is zero.
61 This is designed for use in the typical idiom of :
63 p = SMB_REALLOC(p, size)
64 if (!p) {
65 return error;
68 and not to have to keep track of the old 'p' contents to free later, nor
69 to worry if the size parameter was zero. In the case where NULL is returned
70 we guarentee that p has been freed.
72 If free later semantics are desired, then pass 'free_old_on_error' as False which
73 guarentees that the old contents are not freed on error, even if size == 0. To use
74 this idiom use :
76 tmp = SMB_REALLOC_KEEP_OLD_ON_ERROR(p, size);
77 if (!tmp) {
78 SAFE_FREE(p);
79 return error;
80 } else {
81 p = tmp;
84 Changes were instigated by Coverity error checking. JRA.
