SYNOPSIS

          #define BSON_ARRAY_ALLOC0(Count, Type) \
             (Type*) bson_array_alloc0 (Count, sizeof (Type))

          void *
          bson_array_alloc0 (size_t num_elems, size_t elem_size);

PARAMETERS

       • num_elems: A size_t containing the number of objects to allocate.

       • elem_size: A size_t containing the size of each object in bytes.

DESCRIPTION

       This is a portable calloc() wrapper to allocate an array of objects that also sets the memory to zero.

       If num_elems * elem_size cannot be represented in a size_t or there was a failure to allocate num_elems *
       elem_size bytes, the process will be aborted.

       Warning:
          This function will abort on failure to allocate memory.

RETURNS

       A pointer to a memory region which HAS been zeroed.
