PFV_IDPES_FN_ALLOC_MEM

Allocates memory for user exits to use.

Syntax:

typedef void *(*PFV_IDPES_FN_ALLOC_MEM)(cobuns32_t mem_size);

On Entry:

mem_size

Number of bytes to allocate

On Exit:

None

Function returns:

A pointer to the allocated space, or NULL if there is insufficient memory available or an error occurs during the allocation process.

Comments:

Used by user exits to allocate memory, for example, for the creation of a replacement external data value during exit point 7, External Data Value Modification - Output Parameter. If you allocate memory using this function you should subsequently free it using the fn_free_mem support function of IDP_EXIT_SERVICE_FUNCS.
