MEMORY(3TIFF)							 MEMORY(3TIFF)

NAME
       _TIFFmalloc,   _TIFFrealloc,   _TIFFfree,   _TIFFmemset,	  _TIFFmemcpy,
       _TIFFmemcmp, - memory management-related	functions for  use  with  TIFF
       files

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<tiffio.h>

       tdata_t _TIFFmalloc(tsize_t size);
       tdata_t _TIFFrealloc(tdata_t buffer, tsize_t size);
       void _TIFFfree(tdata_t buffer);
       void _TIFFmemset(tdata_t	s, int c, tsize_t n);
       void _TIFFmemcpy(tdata_t	dest, const tdata_t src, tsize_t n);
       int _TIFFmemcmp(const tdata_t s1, const tdata_t s2, tsize_t n);

DESCRIPTION
       These  routines	are  provided  for writing portable software that uses
       libtiff;	they hide any memory-management	related	issues,	such as	 deal-
       ing with	segmented architectures	found on 16-bit	machines.

       _TIFFmalloc and _TIFFrealloc are	used to	dynamically allocate and real-
       locate  memory used by libtiff; such as memory passed into the I/O rou-
       tines. Memory allocated through these interfaces	is  released  back  to
       the system using	the _TIFFfree routine.

       Memory  allocated  through  one of the above interfaces can be set to a
       known value using _TIFFmemset, copied to	another	memory location	 using
       _TIFFmemcpy,  or	 compared  for equality	using _TIFFmemcmp.  These rou-
       tines conform to	the equivalent ANSI C routines:	 memset,  memcpy,  and
       memcmp, respectively.

DIAGNOSTICS
       None.
