43 #include <security_asn1/prtypes.h>
50 ** Thread safe memory allocation.
52 ** NOTE: pr wraps up malloc, free, calloc, realloc so they are already
53 ** thread safe (and are not declared here - look in stdlib.h).
57 ** PR_Malloc, PR_Calloc, PR_Realloc, and PR_Free have the same signatures
58 ** as their libc equivalent malloc, calloc, realloc, and free, and have
59 ** the same semantics. (Note that the argument type size_t is replaced
60 ** by PRUint32.) Memory allocated by PR_Malloc, PR_Calloc, or PR_Realloc
61 ** must be freed by PR_Free.
