DAPIAllocBuffer

The DAPIAllocBuffer function allocates or reallocates a block of memory.

Quick Info

LPVOID DAPIAllocBuffer(
  ULONG cbSize,       
  LPVOID pvAllocBase  
);
 

Parameters

cbSize

Input parameter. Specifies the size (in bytes) of the requested memory block.

pvAllocBase

Input/output parameter. Points to the base address for the allocated memory block.

Return Values

NULL

If the memory is not available or pvAllocBase is not a legal allocation base.

A pointer to the allocated block of memory.

Remarks

If pvAllocBase is not NULL, pvAllocBase must point to a memory block that was either previously allocated by DAPIAllocBuffer or returned by another directory function.

You release the allocated memory with a call to DAPIFreeMemory.
