VistaIONew - allocate storage for an instance of a data type

#include <vistaio.h>


type *VistaIONew (type)

type;









  

  
Specifies a previously declared data type.










VistaIONew allocates storage for one instance of a data
    type. It is a convenience macro that calls VistaIOMalloc(3) with the
    following arguments specified:






((type *) VistaIOMalloc (sizeof (type))










VistaIONew returns a pointer to the allocated storage.








VistaIOMalloc(3), VistaIONewString(3),
    VistaIOError(3),










If there is insufficient memory to allocate the new block,
    VistaIONew terminates by calling VistaIOError(3) with the
    message ``Out of memory''.
