NAME

       Binary::createBlock - Create a new, uninitialised block for binary data.

SYNOPSIS

       Binary createBlock( Int bsize )

ARGUMENTS

       bsize The size of the block. Block sizes cannot be changed once the block is created.

DESCRIPTION

       Create a new, uninitialised block for binary data. Remember to use Builtins.byteLength (3kaya) instead of
       Builtins.length  (3kaya)  if you want to store Strings in these, as you may have problems with multi-byte
       characters otherwise.

       The uninitialised contents of this block are not guaranteed to be zeroes.
