Trait simple_allocator_trait::Allocator

pub trait Allocator {
    fn allocate<T>(capacity: usize) -> *mut T;
    unsafe fn deallocate<T>(ptr: *mut T, capacity: usize);
}

A trait for all allocators that collections can be generic about

Required Methods

fn allocate<T>(capacity: usize) -> *mut T

Allocate enough memory to store capacity of T

unsafe fn deallocate<T>(ptr: *mut T, capacity: usize)

Free previously allocated memory from pointer.

Undefined behaviour when passed something else than a pointer that was created in a call of allocate, or when passing a differing capacity
