Detailed Description

Abstract allocator interface for memory management.

Inherits from memoryHaver, so can measure state and size of managed memory. Additionally can allocate and deallocate memory.

Remarks

void* and byte-only perspective Following memlite's concept of viewing all memory only as void* and bytes, new() and del() parameters only provide void*.

naming conventions

Allocation uses new1() (meaning "new one"), deallocation uses del(). This naming is frequently used not only in memlite but throughout the byeol project.
