## Detailed Description

### template<class T, bool T_Align16 = false>
class AllocatorWithCleanup< T, T_Align16 >

Allocates a block of memory with cleanup.

Template Parameters

  T | class or type
  T_Align16 | boolean that determines whether allocations should be aligned on a 16-byte boundary

If T_Align16 is true, then AllocatorWithCleanup calls AlignedAllocate() for memory allocations. If T_Align16 is false, then AllocatorWithCleanup() calls UnalignedAllocate() for memory allocations.

Template parameter T_Align16 is effectively controlled by cryptlib.h and mirrors CRYPTOPP_BOOL_ALIGN16. CRYPTOPP_BOOL_ALIGN16 is often used as the template parameter.

## Member Function Documentation

## ◆ allocate()

template<class T, bool T_Align16 = false>

pointer AllocatorWithCleanup< T, T_Align16 >::allocate | ( | size_type | size,
|  | const void * | ptr = `NULL`
| ) |  |
| inline

Allocates a block of memory.

Parameters

  ptr | the size of the allocation
  size | the size of the allocation, in elements

Returns
  a memory block

Exceptions

  InvalidArgument |

allocate() first checks the size of the request. If it is non-0 and less than max_size(), then an attempt is made to fulfill the request using either AlignedAllocate() or UnalignedAllocate().

AlignedAllocate() is used if T_Align16 is true. UnalignedAllocate() used if T_Align16 is false.

This is the C++ *Placement New* operator. ptr is not used, and the function CRYPTOPP_ASSERTs in Debug builds if ptr is non-NULL.

See also
  CallNewHandler() for the methods used to recover from a failed allocation attempt.

Note
  size is the count of elements, and not the number of bytes

Definition at line 193 of file secblock.h.

## ◆ deallocate()

template<class T, bool T_Align16 = false>

void AllocatorWithCleanup< T, T_Align16 >::deallocate | ( | void * | ptr,
|  | size_type | size
| ) |  |
| inline

Deallocates a block of memory.

Parameters

  ptr | the pointer for the allocation
  size | the size of the allocation, in elements

Internally, SecureWipeArray() is called before deallocating the memory. Once the memory block is wiped or zeroized, AlignedDeallocate() or UnalignedDeallocate() is called.

AlignedDeallocate() is used if T_Align16 is true. UnalignedDeallocate() used if T_Align16 is false.

Definition at line 217 of file secblock.h.

## ◆ reallocate()

template<class T, bool T_Align16 = false>

pointer AllocatorWithCleanup< T, T_Align16 >::reallocate | ( | T * | oldPtr,
|  | size_type | oldSize,
|  | size_type | newSize,
|  | bool | preserve
| ) |  |
| inline

Reallocates a block of memory.

Parameters

  oldPtr | the previous allocation
  oldSize | the size of the previous allocation
  newSize | the new, requested size
  preserve | flag that indicates if the old allocation should be preserved

Returns
  pointer to the new memory block

Internally, reallocate() calls StandardReallocate().

If preserve is true, then index 0 is used to begin copying the old memory block to the new one. If the block grows, then the old array is copied in its entirety. If the block shrinks, then only newSize elements are copied from the old block to the new one.

Note
  oldSize and newSize are the count of elements, and not the number of bytes.
