NAME

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

The function changes the size of the object pointed to by to the size specified by The contents of the object are unchanged up to the lesser of the new and old sizes. If the new size is larger, the value of the newly allocated portion of the object is indeterminate. If is a null pointer, the function behaves like the function for the specified size. Otherwise, if does not match a pointer earlier returned by the or function, or if the space has been deallocated by a call to the or function, unpredictable and usually detrimental behavior will occur. If the space cannot be allocated, the object pointed to by is unchanged. If is zero and is not a null pointer, the object it points to is freed. The function returns either a null pointer or a pointer to the possibly moved allocated space.
