void autfreeheap( Pointer, Size )


   char         ∗Pointer;


   unsigned int Size;

PARAMETERS

Pointer

Pointer to be given back to the heap.

Size

Size of the block previously allocated by autallocheap.

#include "aut101.h"
typedef struct bipointer
{


  struct bipointer ∗NEXT;


  void             ∗DATA;
} bipointer;
bipointer ∗addbipointer( Data );


  void ∗Data;
{


  bipointer ∗Bp = (bipointer ∗)autallocheap( sizeof( bipointer ) );


  Bp->DATA = Data;


  return Bp;
}
void delbipointer( Bp );


  bipointer ∗Bp;
{


  autfreeheap( Pointer, sizeof( bipointer ) );
}
