Example (_uopen -- Open Heap for Use) (Windows)

This example creates a fixed-size heap, then uses _uopen to open it. The program then performs operations on the heap, and closes and destroys it.

#include <windows.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <umalloc.h>
int main(void)
{
   void    *initial_block;
   Heap_t  myheap;
   char    *p;
   /* Call VirtualAlloc to get the initial block of memory */
   if (NULL == (initial_block =
       VirtualAlloc(NULL, 65536, MEM_COMMIT|MEM_RESERVE, PAGE_READWRITE)))
   {
      printf("VirtualAlloc error: %d.\n", GetLastError());
      exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
   }
   /* Create a fixed size heap starting with the block declared earlier */
   if (NULL == (myheap = _ucreate(initial_block, 65536, _BLOCK_CLEAN,
                                  _HEAP_REGULAR, NULL, NULL))) {
      puts("_ucreate failed.");
      exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
   }
   if (0 != _uopen(myheap)) {
      puts("_uopen failed.");
      exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
   }
   p = (char *)_umalloc(myheap, 100);
   free(p);
   if (0 != _uclose(myheap)) {
      puts("_uclose failed");
      exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
   }
   if (FALSE == VirtualFree(initial_block, 0, MEM_RELEASE)) {
      printf("VirtualFree error: %d.\n", GetLastError());
      exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
   }
   return 0;
}
