Fast allocator that dispenses heterogeneous blocks from an external buffer.
Declared in <bdlma_bufferedsequentialallocator.h>
class BufferedSequentialAllocator
: public ManagedAllocator
This class implements the ManagedAllocator protocol to provide a fast allocator that dispenses heterogeneous blocks of memory (of varying, user-specified sizes) from an external buffer whose address and size (in bytes) are supplied at construction. If an allocation request exceeds the remaining free memory space in the external buffer, memory will be supplied by an (optional) allocator also supplied at construction; if no allocator is supplied, the currently installed default allocator is used. This class is exception neutral: If memory cannot be allocated, the behavior is defined by the (optional) allocator supplied at construction. Note that in no case will the buffered sequential allocator attempt to deallocate the external buffer.
