:mrdocs:

Create a proctor to manage a memory block from the specified allocator.

== Synopsis

Declared in `<bslma_deallocatebytesproctor.h>`

[source,cpp,subs="verbatim,replacements,macros,-callouts"]
----
DeallocateBytesProctor(
    ALLOCATOR const& allocator,
    xref:BloombergLP/bslma/DeallocateBytesProctor.adoc[PtrType] p,
    std::size_t nbytes,
    std::size_t alignment = k_MAX_ALIGNMENT);
----

== Description

Create a proctor to manage the specified `nbytes` bytes at the specified `p` address, which have been allocated from the specified `allocator`. Optionally specify the `alignment` used to allocate the bytes. If `p` is null, then the created proctor is disengaged (manages no memory). The behavior is undefined unless `p` is null or was allocated from `allocator` with a size of `nbytes` and alignment of `alignment`.

== Parameters
