#include <nitro/os.h>OSHeapHandle OS_CreateHeap( OSArenaId id, void* start, void* end ); | id | Arena ID of an arena in which you are going to create a heap |
| start | Starting address of heap region |
| end | Ending address of address of heap region (+1) |
In the case that it was possible to create a heap, the handle to the heap is returned. When a heap could not be created, -1 is returned.
Creates a heap in the specified arena.
The arena is specified with the arena ID (id). For more information on this value, see the OS_InitArena function. The arena must have memory allocated with the OS_InitAlloc function and then be initialized in advance. The region for the heap is from start to end. The end address is +1 from the actual end position.
OS_CreateHeap( OS_ARENA_MAIN, (void*)0x2030000, (void*)0x2040000 );In this example, the 0x10000 bytes from 0x2030000 to 0x203FFFF are used as the heap region.
Call the OS_DestroyHeap function to destroy created heaps.
Call the OS_ClearHeap function to reinitialize a heap.
