## Constructor & Destructor Documentation

template<class MALLOC>
ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::ACE_Allocator_Adapter | ( | const char * | pool_name = `0` | ) |

| Note that pool_name should be located in a directory with the appropriate visibility and protection so that all processes that need to access it can do so.

template<class MALLOC>
ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::ACE_Allocator_Adapter | ( | const char * | pool_name,
|  | const char * | lock_name,
|  | MEMORY_POOL_OPTIONS | options = `0`
| ) | `[inline]`

| Note that pool_name should be located in a directory with the appropriate visibility and protection so that all processes that need to access it can do so. This constructor must be inline to avoid bugs with some C++ compilers.

template<class MALLOC>
ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::ACE_Allocator_Adapter | ( | const wchar_t * | pool_name | ) |

| Note that pool_name should be located in a directory with the appropriate visibility and protection so that all processes that need to access it can do so.

ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::ACE_Allocator_Adapter | ( | const wchar_t * | pool_name,
|  | const wchar_t * | lock_name,
|  | MEMORY_POOL_OPTIONS | options = `0`
| ) | `[inline]`

| Note that pool_name should be located in a directory with the appropriate visibility and protection so that all processes that need to access it can do so. This constructor must be inline to avoid bugs with some C++ compilers.

template<class MALLOC>
ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::~ACE_Allocator_Adapter | ( | void |  | ) | `[virtual]`

| Destructor.

## Member Function Documentation

template<class MALLOC>
MALLOC & ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::alloc | ( | void |  | ) |

| Returns the underlying allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
int ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::bind | ( | const char * | name,
|  | void * | pointer,
|  | int | duplicates = `0`
| ) | `[virtual]`

Associate name with pointer. If duplicates == 0 then do not allow duplicate name/pointer associations, else if duplicates> != 0 then allow duplicate name/pointer assocations. Returns 0 if successfully binds (1) a previously unbound name or (2) duplicates != 0, returns 1 if trying to bind a previously bound name and duplicates == 0, else returns -1 if a resource failure occurs.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
void * ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::calloc | ( | size_t | n_elem,
|  | size_t | elem_size,
|  | char | initial_value = `'\0'`
| ) | `[virtual]`

| Allocate n_elem each of size elem_size, giving them initial_value. Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
void * ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::calloc | ( | size_t | nbytes,
|  | char | initial_value = `'\0'`
| ) | `[virtual]`

| Allocate nbytes, giving them all an initial_value. Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
void ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::dump | ( | void |  | ) | const`[virtual]`

| Dump the state of the object. Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
int ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::find | ( | const char * | name | ) | `[virtual]`

| Returns 0 if the name is in the mapping and -1 if not. Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
int ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::find | ( | const char * | name,
|  | void *& | pointer
| ) | `[virtual]`

| Locate name and pass out parameter via pointer. If found, return 0, returns -1 if name isn't found. Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
void ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::free | ( | void * | ptr | ) | `[virtual]`

| Free ptr (must have been allocated by ACE_Allocator::malloc()). Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
void * ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::malloc | ( | size_t | nbytes | ) | `[virtual]`

| Allocate nbytes, but don't give them any initial value. Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
int ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::protect | ( | void * | addr,
|  | size_t | len,
|  | int | prot = `PROT_RDWR`
| ) | `[virtual]`

| Change the protection of the pages of the mapped region to prot starting at addr up to len bytes. Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
int ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::protect | ( | ssize_t | len = `-1`,
|  | int | prot = `PROT_RDWR`
| ) | `[virtual]`

| Change the protection of the pages of the mapped region to prot starting at `this->base_addr_` up to len bytes. If len == -1 then change protection of all pages in the mapped region. Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
int ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::remove | ( | void |  | ) | `[virtual]`

| Remove any resources associated with this memory manager. Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
int ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::sync | ( | void * | addr,
|  | size_t | len,
|  | int | flags = `MS_SYNC`
| ) | `[virtual]`

| Sync len bytes of the memory region to the backing store starting at `addr_`. Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
int ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::sync | ( | ssize_t | len = `-1`,
|  | int | flags = `MS_SYNC`
| ) | `[virtual]`

| Sync len bytes of the memory region to the backing store starting at `this->base_addr_`. If len == -1 then sync the whole region. Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
int ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::trybind | ( | const char * | name,
|  | void *& | pointer
| ) | `[virtual]`

Associate name with pointer. Does not allow duplicate name/pointer associations. Returns 0 if successfully binds (1) a previously unbound name, 1 if trying to bind a previously bound name, or returns -1 if a resource failure occurs. When this call returns, pointer's value will always reference the void * that name is associated with. Thus, if the caller needs to use pointer (e.g., to free it) a copy must be maintained by the caller.

Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
int ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::unbind | ( | const char * | name,
|  | void *& | pointer
| ) | `[virtual]`

| Break any association of name. Returns the value of pointer in case the caller needs to deallocate memory. Implements ACE_Allocator.

template<class MALLOC>
int ACE_Allocator_Adapter< MALLOC >::unbind | ( | const char * | name | ) | `[virtual]`

| Unbind (remove) the name from the map. Don't return the pointer to the caller Implements ACE_Allocator.
