Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Construct a new Free List object.

Parameters

t_Start	Start of the memory block to use for this free list
t_End	End of the memory block to use for this free list
t_ElmSize	Size of an "element" that this list will be used for
t_NumElms	Number of elements to store inside this free list
t_Alignment	Alignment of the element (default = 8)
t_Offset	Offset of the element (default = 0)

void * Fling::FreeList::Obtain ( )

inlinenoexcept

Obtain a chunk of memory of the size and alignment that this list was created with.

void Fling::FreeList::Return ( void * t_Ptr )

inline

Return a block of memory to the free list.

Memory can be returned in any order

FreeList* Fling::FreeList::m_Next = nullptr

private

Alias in memory to the next available block.

Nullptr if none are available
