       autallocblock - memory allocator

ORIGIN

SYNOPSYS

       #include "aut101.h"
       char *autallocblock( Size )
	  unsigned int Size;

PARAMETERS

       Size		   Number of memory bytes to be contiguously allocated

       DESCRIPTION
	      autallocblock returns a block of Size bytes length.  The memory block is set to zero.

RETURN VALUE

       autallocblock returns a pointer to a Size bytes long block.

ERRORS

       "autalloc: alloc error, can't continue !"
	      System break can't be moved anymore, no more memory can be retrieved from the system.

EXAMPLE

       #include "aut101.h"
       char *dup_str(s)
	 char * s;
       {
	 char *t = (char *)autalocblock(strlen(s) + (unsigned int)1);
	 strcpy(t, s); return t;
       }

NAME

       mbkalloc - mbk memory allocator

ORIGIN

       This  software  belongs	to  the  ALLIANCE CAD SYSTEM developed by the ASIM team at LIP6 laboratory of Universite Pierre et Marie CURIE, in
       Paris, France.

SYNOPSYS

       #include "mut.h"
       char *mbkalloc(bytes)
       unsigned int bytes;

PARAMETER

       bytes		   Number of memory bytes to be contiguously allocated

DESCRIPTION

       mbkalloc returns a block of bytes length, for any purpose.  It is now a day just an encapsulation of the system malloc  function,  but  may
       evolve to a special allocator in the future. Its use is strongly encouraged.

       Remark : 	   a  global variable, long mbkalloc_stat, updates the number of allocated bytes, and may be accessed by anyone to see the
			   amount of allocated memory.

RETURN VALUE

       mbkalloc returns a pointer to a bytes long block.

ERROR

       "*** mbk error *** mbkalloc impossible : not enough memory"
	      System break can't be moved anymore, no more memory can be retrieved from the system.

EXAMPLE

       #include "mut.h"
       char *dup_str(s);
       {
       char *t = (char *)mbkalloc(strlen(s) + (unsigned int)1);
	  strcpy(t, s);
	  return t;
       }
