PALLOCMEM callback function (lpmapi.h)

The PALLOCMEM function is a memory allocation function provided by the PCM, used for allocating memory when returning policy information to the PCM. The PALLOCMEM function is supplied as a parameter of the LPM_Initialize function, and allows the SBM to experiment with different memory-management schemes without requiring recompilation of LPMs.

Syntax

)
{...}

Parameters

[in] Size
