Memory Management Issues
A server DataBlade API function should not call
malloc()
because when an exception is raised, DataBlade API does not automatically deallocate memory that
malloc()
function allocates. Instead, the server function should use the DataBlade API function
mi_alloc()
,
mi_dalloc()
, or
mi_zalloc()
to allocate memory and
mi_free()
to deallocate it. These functions are also available in the client DataBlade API interface to provide portability between client and server DataBlade API functions. To use these functions, be sure to include
mi.h
in your application.
