## Macros
#define | wmem_new(allocator, type)
| Allocate memory sufficient to hold one object of the given type.
#define | wmem_safe_mult_type_size(type, num)
| Overflow-safe multiplication of the size of a type by a number of items.
#define | wmem_alloc_array(allocator, type, num)
| Allocate memory sufficient to hold n objects of the given type.
#define | wmem_new0(allocator, type)
| Allocate memory sufficient to hold one object of the given type. Initializes the allocated memory with zeroes.
#define | wmem_alloc0_array(allocator, type, num)
| Allocate memory sufficient to hold n objects of the given type. Initializes the allocated memory with zeroes.

## Typedefs
typedef struct _wmem_allocator_t | wmem_allocator_t
typedef enum _wmem_allocator_type_t | wmem_allocator_type_t

## Enumerations
enum | _wmem_allocator_type_t { WMEM_ALLOCATOR_SIMPLE , WMEM_ALLOCATOR_BLOCK , WMEM_ALLOCATOR_STRICT , WMEM_ALLOCATOR_BLOCK_FAST }

## Functions
WS_WARN_UNUSED WS_DLL_PUBLIC void * | wmem_alloc (wmem_allocator_t *allocator, const size_t size) G_GNUC_MALLOC G_GNUC_ALLOC_SIZE(2)
| Allocate the requested amount of memory in the given pool.
WS_WARN_UNUSED WS_DLL_PUBLIC void * | wmem_alloc0 (wmem_allocator_t *allocator, const size_t size) G_GNUC_MALLOC G_GNUC_ALLOC_SIZE(2)
| Allocate the requested amount of memory in the given pool. Initializes the allocated memory with zeroes.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void | wmem_free (wmem_allocator_t *allocator, void *ptr)
| Returns the allocated memory to the allocator.
WS_WARN_UNUSED WS_DLL_PUBLIC void * | wmem_realloc (wmem_allocator_t *allocator, void *ptr, const size_t size) G_GNUC_ALLOC_SIZE(3)
| Resizes a block of memory, potentially moving it if resizing it in place is not possible.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void | wmem_free_all (wmem_allocator_t *allocator)
| Frees all the memory allocated in a pool.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void | wmem_gc (wmem_allocator_t *allocator)
| Triggers a garbage-collection in the allocator.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void | wmem_destroy_allocator (wmem_allocator_t *allocator)
| Destroy the given allocator, freeing all memory allocated in it.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC wmem_allocator_t * | wmem_allocator_new (const wmem_allocator_type_t type)
| Create a new allocator of the given type.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void | wmem_init (void)
| Initialize the wmem subsystem.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void | wmem_cleanup (void)
| Teardown the wmem subsystem.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void | wmem_enter_scope (wmem_allocator_t *allocator)
| Mark an allocator as entering a scoped memory region.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC void | wmem_leave_scope (wmem_allocator_t *allocator)
| Exit a scoped memory region and free all scoped allocations.
WS_DLL_PUBLIC bool | wmem_in_scope (wmem_allocator_t *allocator)
| Check whether an allocator is currently in a scoped region.
