Function Macro
GLibslice_new0
since: 2.10
Description
A convenience macro to allocate a block of memory from the slice allocator and set the memory to 0.
It calls g_slice_alloc0()
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.
