             Summary: Safe helpers to allocate arrays
                 Key: CLOWNFISH-38
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLOWNFISH-38
             Project: Apache Lucy-Clownfish
          Issue Type: Improvement
            Reporter: Nick Wellnhofer


Code like {{MALLOCATE(num_elems * sizeof(Type))}} in often unsafe because it 
fails to check whether the multiplication overflows. We should provide helper 
functions to allocate and reallocate arrays safely. See {{reallocarray}} in 
BSD, for example.
