Re^2: help with XS (Newx and

Hi! sorry if I ask, but the

Newxz( l_packet, 1, AirLorconDriver);
[download]

would be referred to the memset or to the malloc function? because in the malloc case (r = (AirLorconDriver *) malloc(sizeof(AirLorconDriver *) );) there isn't any packet_l. thanks Edoardo Mantovani, 2020

`Newxz` is a combined `malloc()` plus `memset()` call, see perlapi and perlguts on it. I think the usage would be to declare the pointer to your struct and then to have it allocated and zeroed like this: `Newxz( r, 1, AirLorconDriver );` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
