Field Documentation

pj_pool_t*(* pj_pool_factory::create_pool)(pj_pool_factory *factory, const char *name, pj_size_t initial_size, pj_size_t increment_size, pj_pool_callback *callback)

Create a new pool from the pool factory.

Parameters:

	factory	The pool factory.
	name	the name to be assigned to the pool. The name should not be longer than PJ_MAX_OBJ_NAME (32 chars), or otherwise it will be truncated.
	initial_size	the size of initial memory blocks taken by the pool. Note that the pool will take 68+20 bytes for administrative area from this block.
	increment_size	the size of each additional blocks to be allocated when the pool is running out of memory. If user requests memory which is larger than this size, then an error occurs. Note that each time a pool allocates additional block, it needs 20 bytes (equal to sizeof(pj_pool_block)) to store some administrative info.
	callback	Cllback to be called when error occurs in the pool. Note that when an error occurs during pool creation, the callback itself is not called. Instead, NULL will be returned.

Returns:

the memory pool, or NULL.

void(* pj_pool_factory::dump_status)(pj_pool_factory *factory, pj_bool_t detail)

Dump pool status to log.

Parameters:

factory

The pool factory.

pj_bool_t(* pj_pool_factory::on_block_alloc)(pj_pool_factory *factory, pj_size_t size)

This is optional callback to be called by allocation policy when it allocates a new memory block. The factory may use this callback for example to keep track of the total number of memory blocks currently allocated by applications.

Parameters:

	factory	The pool factory.
	size	Size requested by application.

Returns:

MUST return PJ_TRUE, otherwise the block allocation is cancelled.

void(* pj_pool_factory::on_block_free)(pj_pool_factory *factory, pj_size_t size)

This is optional callback to be called by allocation policy when it frees memory block. The factory may use this callback for example to keep track of the total number of memory blocks currently allocated by applications.

Parameters:

	factory	The pool factory.
	size	Size freed.

pj_pool_factory_policy pj_pool_factory::policy

Memory pool policy.

void(* pj_pool_factory::release_pool)(pj_pool_factory *factory, pj_pool_t *pool)

Release the pool to the pool factory.

Parameters:

	factory	The pool factory.
	pool	The pool to be released.
