SDL_ALLOC_SIZE - A macro to tag a function as returning a certain allocation.
Contents
Availability
This macro is available since SDL 3.2.0.
Simple Directmedia Layer SDL 3.2.10 SDL_ALLOC_SIZE(3)
Description
This is a hint to the compiler that a function allocates and returns a specific amount of memory based on
one of its arguments. For example, the C runtime's malloc() function could use this macro with an
argument of 1 (first argument to malloc is the size of the allocation).
On compilers without alloc_size support, this is defined to nothing.
Most apps don't need to, and should not, use this directly.
