REALLOCARR(3) FreeBSD Library Functions Manual REALLOCARR(3)
NAME
reallocarr - reallocate array
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>
int
reallocarr(void *ptr, size_t number, size_t size);
DESCRIPTION
The reallocarr function reallocates the memory in *ptr.
RETURN VALUES
On successful completion, returns 0 and updates *ptr. Otherwise, an
error code (see errno(2)) is returned and *ptr and the referenced memory
is unmodified.
EXAMPLES
The following uses reallocarr() to initialize an array of INITSIZE
integers, then resizes it to NEWSIZE elements:
int *data = NULL;
int ret = 0;
ret = reallocarr(&data, INITSIZE, sizeof(*data));
if (ret)
errc(1, ret, "reallocarr failed");
ret = reallocarr(&data, NEWSIZE, sizeof(*data));
if (ret)
errc(1, ret, "reallocarr failed on resize");
SEE ALSO
calloc(3)
HISTORY
reallocarr first appeared in NetBSD 7.0. OpenBSD introduced the
reallocarray(3) function for the same purpose, but the interface makes it
difficult to correctly handle zero-sized allocations.
