Function Reference


_WinAPI_CoTaskMemAlloc

Allocates a block of task memory

#include <WinAPICom.au3>
_WinAPI_CoTaskMemAlloc ( $iSize )

Parameters

$iSize The size of the memory block to be allocated, in bytes.

Return Value

Success: The allocated memory block.
Failure: 0.

Remarks

If $iSize is 0, _WinAPI_CoTaskMemAlloc() allocates a zero-length item and returns a valid pointer to that item.
The allocated block may be larger than $iSize bytes because of the space required for alignment and for maintenance information.
