std.mem

Higher-level memory management utilities built on top of std.alloc.

Functions

alloc_bytes(size: Int) -> String

Allocates size bytes of memory. Delegates to std.alloc.alloc.

free_bytes(ptr: String, size: Int) -> Void

Frees a memory region at ptr of the given size. Delegates to std.alloc.free.

resize_bytes(ptr: String, old_size: Int, new_size: Int) -> String

Resizes a memory region from old_size to new_size. Delegates to std.alloc.realloc.

Examples

load std.mem

let buf = mem.alloc_bytes(256)
mem.free_bytes(buf, 256)
