As can be seen, the key allocator function is [https://gitorious.org/fg/simgear/blobs/next/simgear/nasal/misc.c#line66 naNew()]. naNew() is really just a fancy malloc() replacement, i.e. it's just getting passed the Nasal execution context, and the nasal type (which is mapped to the size of the requested memory region using naTypeSize()). | As can be seen, the key allocator function is [https://gitorious.org/fg/simgear/blobs/next/simgear/nasal/misc.c#line66 naNew()]. | ||
All memory allocations done via the naNew*() helpers will first of all set up memory using naNew(). | |||

The naNew() function is also implemented in misc.c, see [https://gitorious.org/fg/simgear/blobs/next/simgear/nasal/misc.c#line122 line 66]: | The naNew() function is also implemented in misc.c, see [https://gitorious.org/fg/simgear/blobs/next/simgear/nasal/misc.c#line122 line 66]: | ||
