+
+A "block-type object" is used to efficiently allocate and free blocks
+of a particular size. Freed blocks are remembered in a free list and
+are reused as necessary to allocate new blocks, so as to avoid as
+much as possible making calls to malloc() and free().
+
+This is a container object. Declare a block-type object of a specific type
+as follows:
+
+struct mytype_blocktype {
+ Blocktype_declare (mytype);
+};
+
+Use the following functions/macros:
+
+ structype *Blocktype_new(structype)
+ [MACRO] Create a new block-type object of the specified type.
+ The argument to this call should be the type of object to be
+ created, e.g. foobar_blocktype.
+ type *Blocktype_alloc(b)
+ [MACRO] Allocate a block of the proper type for the specified
+ block-type object and return a pointer to it.
+ Blocktype_free(b, block)
+ Free a block of the type corresponding to the specified block-type
+ object.
+ Blocktype_delete(b)
+ Destroy a block-type object and the memory allocated to it.
