Hi, I am currently working on a driver and have been utilizing CPL_calloc(). However, when attempting to pass the Actions, I encounter errors such as:
warning C4244: 'function': conversion from 'MM_INTERNAL_FID' to 'size_t', possible loss of data This issue can be addressed by casting 'MM_INTERNAL_FID' (which is a GUInt64, essentially an unsigned long long) to 'size_t' (also essentially an unsigned long long). So, utilizing a cast is not problematic in this context. However, I noticed in the function description it states "used for small memory allocations," which prompts me to inquire if there is an alternative calloc function for larger memory allocations. If not, I will proceed with casting the variable in all instances. Nonetheless, I would appreciate knowing if there is a cleaner solution available. Thank you for your assistance. /************************************************************************/ /* CPLCalloc() */ /************************************************************************/ /** * Safe version of calloc(). * * This function is like the C library calloc(), but raises a CE_Fatal * error with CPLError() if it fails to allocate the desired memory. It * should be used for small memory allocations that are unlikely to fail * and for which the application is unwilling to test for out of memory * conditions. It uses VSICalloc() to get the memory, so any hooking of * VSICalloc() will apply to CPLCalloc() as well. CPLFree() or VSIFree() * can be used free memory allocated by CPLCalloc(). * * @param nCount number of objects to allocate. * @param nSize size (in bytes) of object to allocate. * @return pointer to newly allocated memory, only NULL if nSize * nCount is * NULL. */ Abel Pau Garcia GIS developer [https://www.creaf.cat/sites/default/files/creaf-signature.png] a....@creaf.uab.cat<mailto:a....@creaf.uab.cat> Let's chat on Teams!<https://teams.microsoft.com/l/chat/0/0?users=a....@creaf.uab.cat> Tel. +34 934814277 [https://www.creaf.cat/sites/default/files/so-en-signature.png] [https://www.creaf.cat/sites/default/files/twitter-icon-signature.png]<https://twitter.com/CREAF_ecologia>[https://www.creaf.cat/sites/default/files/linkedin-icon-signature.png]<https://www.linkedin.com/company/1363052?trk=tyah&trkInfo=clickedVertical:company,clickedEntityId:1363052,idx:2-1-2,tarId:1465807877789,tas:creaf>[https://www.creaf.cat/sites/default/files/youtube-icon-signature.png]<https://www.youtube.com/c/creafecologia>[https://www.creaf.cat/sites/default/files/instagram-icon-signature.png]<https://www.instagram.com/CREAF_ecologia/> www.creaf.cat<http://www.creaf.cat> | http://blog.creaf.cat [https://www.creaf.cat/sites/default/files/uab_logo_signatura.png] CREAF.
