/* NAME
/*	mvect 3
/* SUMMARY
/*	memory vector management
/* SYNOPSIS
/*	#include <mvect.h>
/*
/*	char	*mvect_alloc(vector, elsize, nelm, init_fn, wipe_fn)
/*	MVECT	*vector;
/*	int	elsize;
/*	int	nelm;
/*	void	(*init_fn)(char *ptr, int count);
/*	void	(*wipe_fn)(char *ptr, int count);
/*
/*	char	*mvect_realloc(vector, nelm)
/*	MVECT	*vector;
/*	int	nelm;
/*
/*	char	*mvect_free(vector)
/*	MVECT	*vector;
/* DESCRIPTION
/*	This module supports memory management for arrays of arbitrary
/*	objects.  It is up to the application to provide specific code
/*	that initializes and uses object memory.
/*
/*	mvect_alloc() initializes memory for a vector with elements
/*	of \fIelsize\fR bytes, and with at least \fInelm\fR elements.
/*	\fIinit_fn\fR is a null pointer, or a pointer to a function
/*	that initializes \fIcount\fR vector elements.
/*	\fIwipe_fn\fR is a null pointer, or a pointer to a function
/*	that is complementary to \fIinit_fn\fR. This routine is called
/*	by mvect_free(). The result of mvect_alloc() is a pointer to
/*	the allocated vector.
/*
/*	mvect_realloc() guarantees that the specified vector has space
/*	for at least \fInelm\fR elements. The result is a pointer to the
/*	allocated vector, which may change across calls.
/*
/*	mvect_free() releases storage for the named vector. The result
/*	is a convenient null pointer.
/* SEE ALSO
/*	mymalloc(3) memory management
/* DIAGNOSTICS
/*	Problems are reported via the msg(3) diagnostics routines:
/*	the requested amount of memory is not available; improper use
/*	is detected; other fatal errors.
