Member Function Documentation

template<class _Tp> void * fixed_mem_pool< _Tp >::allocate (   )  [inline, static]

Allocates a memory block from the memory pool. Returns: pointer to the allocated memory block

template<class _Tp> bool fixed_mem_pool< _Tp >::bad_alloc_handler (   )  [static, protected]

Bad allocation handler. Called when there are no memory blocks available in the memory pool. If this function returns false (default behaviour if not explicitly specialized), it indicates that it can do nothing and allocate() should return NULL; if this function returns true, it indicates that it has freed some memory blocks and allocate() should try allocating again.

template<class _Tp> void fixed_mem_pool< _Tp >::deallocate (  void *  __block_ptr  )  [inline, static]

Deallocates a memory block and returns it to the memory pool. Parameters: __block_ptr  pointer to the memory block to return

template<class _Tp> int fixed_mem_pool< _Tp >::deinitialize (   )  [static]

Deinitializes the memory pool. Returns: 0 if all memory blocks are returned and the memory pool successfully freed; or a non-zero value indicating number of memory blocks still in allocation

template<class _Tp> int fixed_mem_pool< _Tp >::get_alloc_count (   )  [inline, static]

Gets the allocation count. Returns: the number of memory blocks still in allocation

template<class _Tp> bool fixed_mem_pool< _Tp >::initialize (  size_t  __size  )  [static]

Initializes the memory pool. Parameters: __size  number of memory blocks to put in the memory pool Returns: true if successful; false if memory insufficient

template<class _Tp> bool fixed_mem_pool< _Tp >::is_initialized (   )  [inline, static]

Is the memory pool initialized? Returns: true if it is successfully initialized; false otherwise
