Instead Of: Use:
- t* p = malloc(n) New(id, p, n, t)
- t* p = calloc(n, s) Newz(id, p, n, t)
+ t* p = malloc(n) Newx(id, p, n, t)
+ t* p = calloc(n, s) Newxz(id, p, n, t)
p = realloc(p, n) Renew(p, n, t)
memcpy(dst, src, n) Copy(src, dst, n, t)
memmove(dst, src, n) Move(src, dst, n, t)
Note also the existence of C<sv_catpvf> and C<sv_vcatpvfn>, combining
concatenation with formatting.
-Sometimes instead of zeroing the allocated heap by using Newz() you
+Sometimes instead of zeroing the allocated heap by using Newxz() you
should consider "poisoning" the data. This means writing a bit
pattern into it that should be illegal as pointers (and floating point
numbers), and also hopefully surprising enough as integers, so that
