Since a MemPtr as returned by the MemPtrNew routine is really a locked
handle, you could insert this in your header -- make inline or not per your
preferences:
static __inline void *malloc(UInt16 size)
{
return MemPtrNew(size);
}
static __inline void free(void *ptr)
{
MemPtrFree(ptr);
}
static void *realloc(void *ptr, UInt16 size)
{
MemHandle mh = MemPtrRecoverHandle(ptr);
MemHandleUnlock(mh);
MemHandleResize(mh, size);
return MemHandleLock(mh);
}
