Function Macro
GLibslice_new
Description
A convenience macro to allocate a block of memory from the slice allocator.
It calls g_slice_alloc() with sizeof (type) and casts the
returned pointer to a pointer of the given type, avoiding a type
cast in the source code. Note that the underlying slice allocation
mechanism can be changed with the [G_SLICE=always-malloc][G_SLICE]
environment variable.
This can never return NULL as the minimum allocation size from
sizeof (type) is 1 byte.
