Detailed Description

template<typename Allocator = GuardedAllocator>
class blender::LinearAllocator< Allocator >

If enabled, LinearAllocator keeps track of how much memory it owns and how much it has allocated.

◆ allocate() [1/2]

template<typename Allocator = GuardedAllocator>
template<typename T>
T * blender::LinearAllocator< Allocator >::allocate ( )
inline

Allocate a memory buffer that can hold an instance of T.

This method only allocates memory and does not construct the instance.

Construct multiple instances of a type in an array. The constructor of is called with the given arguments. The caller is responsible for calling the destructor (and not delete) on the constructed elements.

◆ copy_string()

Copy the given string into a memory buffer provided by this allocator. The returned string is always null terminated.

template<typename Allocator = GuardedAllocator>
void blender::LinearAllocator< Allocator >::free_end_of_previous_allocation ( const int64_t original_allocation_size,
const void * free_after )
inline

Some algorithms can be implemented more efficiently by over-allocating the destination memory a bit. This allows the algorithm not to worry about having enough memory. Generally, this can be a useful strategy if the actual required memory is not known in advance, but an upper bound can be found. Ideally, one can free the over-allocated memory in the end again to reduce memory consumption.

A linear allocator generally does allow freeing any memory. However, there is one exception. One can free the end of the last allocation (but not any previous allocation). While uses of this approach are quite limited, it's still the best option in some situations.

template<typename Allocator = GuardedAllocator>
void blender::LinearAllocator< Allocator >::provide_buffer ( void * buffer,
const int64_t size )
inline

Tell the allocator to use up the given memory buffer, before allocating new memory from the system.

◆ transfer_ownership_from()

template<typename Allocator = GuardedAllocator>
void blender::LinearAllocator< Allocator >::transfer_ownership_from ( LinearAllocator<> & other)
inline

This allocator takes ownership of the buffers owned by other. Therefor, when other is destructed, memory allocated using it is not freed.

Note that the caller is responsible for making sure that buffers passed into provide_buffer of other live at least as long as this allocator.
