ARRFalloc
Synopsis
INTEGER FUNCTION ARRFalloc (N1,type,number_of_elements,N2)
INTEGER N1, N2
INTEGER type, number_of_elements
Description
For a complete description of this function, see ARRalloc.On 64-bit platforms, ARRFalloc actually returns an INTEGER*8.
Arguments
type
n integer code specifying the array's data type. AVS/Express provides the following symbolic constants, defined in <avs/dtype.h>:

number_of_elements
The number of elements to be stored in the allocated memory, expressed as an integer.
N1N2
Both N1 and N2 should be set to 0.
Returned value
The address of the allocated memory area or 0 if the call fails.
Examples
none.
#include <avs/omf.inc> INTEGER iaddr C On 64-bit platforms, iaddr should be INTEGER*8 ... iaddr = ARRFalloc(0,DTYPE_FLOAT,2000,0) IF (iaddr .EQ. 0) PRINT*,'Error allocating memory area'
