SDL_aligned_alloc

Function SDL_aligned_alloc 

Source
pub unsafe extern "C" fn SDL_aligned_alloc(
    alignment: usize,
    size: usize,
) -> *mut c_void
Expand description

Allocate memory aligned to a specific alignment.

The memory returned by this function must be freed with SDL_aligned_free(), not SDL_free().

If alignment is less than the size of void *, it will be increased to match that.

The returned memory address will be a multiple of the alignment value, and the size of the memory allocated will be a multiple of the alignment value.

Parameter: alignment the alignment of the memory. Parameter: size the size to allocate. Returns: a pointer to the aligned memory, or NULL if allocation failed.

Thread Safety: It is safe to call this function from any thread.

Available Since: This function is available since SDL 3.2.0.
