BloombergLP::bslma::Allocator::deallocate

Return the memory block at the specified address to this allocator.

Synopsis

Declared in <bslma_allocator.h>

virtual
void
deallocate(void* address) = 0;

Description

Return the memory block at the specified address back to this allocator. If address is 0, this function has no effect. The behavior is undefined unless address was allocated using this allocator object and has not already been deallocated. Note that this virtual function hides a three‐parameter, non‐virtual deallocate method inherited from bsl::memory_resource; to access the inherited function, upcast the object to bsl::memory_resource& before calling the base‐class function.
