Macro Definition Documentation

◆ svn_pool_clear

#define svn_pool_clear apr_pool_clear

Clear a pool destroying its children.

This define for svn_pool_clear exists for completeness.

Definition at line 79 of file svn_pools.h.

◆ svn_pool_destroy

#define svn_pool_destroy apr_pool_destroy

Destroy a pool and all of its children.

This define for svn_pool_destroy exists for symmetry and completeness.

Definition at line 87 of file svn_pools.h.

Function Documentation

◆ svn_pool_create_allocator()

apr_allocator_t* svn_pool_create_allocator ( svn_boolean_t thread_safe )

Return a new allocator.

This function limits the unused memory in the new allocator to SVN_ALLOCATOR_RECOMMENDED_MAX_FREE and ensures proper synchronization if the allocator is used by multiple threads.

If your application uses multiple threads, creating a separate allocator for each of these threads may not be feasible. Set the thread_safe parameter to TRUE in that case; otherwise, set thread_safe to FALSE to maximize performance.

Note: Even if thread_safe is TRUE, pools themselves will still not be thread-safe and their access may require explicit serialization.

To access the owner pool, which can also serve as the root pool for your sub-pools, call apr_allocator_get_owner().

Since: : New in 1.8

◆ svn_pool_create_ex()

apr_pool_t* svn_pool_create_ex	(	apr_pool_t *	parent_pool,
		apr_allocator_t *	allocator
	)

Wrapper around apr_pool_create_ex(), with a simpler interface.

The return pool will have an abort function set, which will call abort() on OOM.
