NAME

       bson_realloc() - This is a portable realloc() wrapper.

SYNOPSIS

       void *
       bson_realloc (void  *mem,
                     size_t num_bytes);

PARAMETERS

       mem    A memory region.

       num_bytes
              A size_t containing the new requested size.

DESCRIPTION

       This is a portable realloc(3) wrapper.

       In  general,  this  function  will  return  an  allocation at least sizeof(void*) bytes or
       bigger. If num_bytes is 0, then the allocation will be freed.

       If there was a failure to allocate num_bytes bytes, the process will be aborted.

       NOTE
              This function will abort on failure to allocate memory.

RETURNS

       A pointer to a memory region which HAS NOT been zeroed.
