Subject: xmmalloc?
Date: Fri, 20 Sep 2002 15:55:00 -0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <ro14rcktgod.fsf@jackfruit.Stanford.EDU> (raw)

Does GDB currently use xmmalloc in any consistent way?  When writing
functions that might call xmalloc, should I try to write versions that
call xmmalloc instead and try to find an appropriate md to pass to
them?  If I don't do that but instead just use xmalloc, will anything
bad happen?  In particular, am I opening up myself to any new
possible memory leaks, other than the ones that are, of course, always
possible when calling xmalloc?

Any background info on this would be appreciated.
