## NAME

ACE_New_Allocator - Defines a class that provided a simple implementation of memory allocation.

## SYNOPSIS

    #include <ace/Malloc.h>

    class ACE_New_Allocator : public ACE_Allocator
    {
      public:
        virtual void *malloc (size_t nbytes);
        virtual void *calloc (size_t nbytes, char initial_value = '  ');
        virtual void free (void *ptr);
        virtual int remove (void);
        virtual int bind (
            const char *name,
            void *pointer,
            int duplicates = 0
            );
        virtual int trybind (const char *name, void *&pointer);
        virtual int find (const char *name, void *&pointer);
        virtual int find (const char *name);
        virtual int unbind (const char *name);
        virtual int unbind (const char *name, void *&pointer);
        virtual int sync (ssize_t len = -1, int flags = MS_SYNC);
        virtual int sync (void *addr, size_t len, int flags = MS_SYNC);
        virtual int protect (ssize_t len = -1, int prot = PROT_RDWR);
        virtual int protect (
            void *addr,
            size_t len,
            int prot = PROT_RDWR
            );
        virtual void print_stats (void) const;
        virtual void dump (void) const;
    };

## DESCRIPTION

This class uses the new/delete operators to allocate and free up memory. Please note that the only methods that are supported are malloc and free. All other methods are no-ops. If you require this functionality, please use: ACE_Allocator_Adapter `ACE_Malloc `ACE_LOCAL_MEMORY_POOL, MUTEX`` This will allow you to use the added functionality of bind/find/etc. while using the new/delete operators.
