💖 BSON_REALLOC_CTX 💖

okay bestie, so this one's from libbson and it's literally the realloc glow-up with a little extra something 😌✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

void *
bson_realloc_ctx (void *mem, size_t num_bytes, void *ctx);

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

  • mem — a memory region. that's the chunk we're working with, periodt 🫶
  • num_bytes — a size_t holding the requested size. like, how big do you want it, bestie? 💅
  • ctx — a consumer-specific pointer, or NULL. it's giving "you do you" energy ✨

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

so here's the tea ☕ — this function is identical to bson_realloc() except it takes a context parameter. that's the whole plot twist, no cap.

and why do we care? because it's useful when you're working with pooled or specific memory allocators 💖 like, if your allocator has commitment issues and needs its own special context, this is the function for you. main character energy fr fr 👑
