## realloc

Syntax

    #include <malloc.h>
    void *realloc (void *ptr, int size);

Arguments

- ptr is the pointer to the beginning of the reserved area to be changed
- size is the new size for the reserved area

Return Value
The pointer to the beginning of the resized reserved area, or NULL if the area could not be resized.
Explanation
It resizes the memory block in a reserved area that was reserved by the InitHeap function. It changes the size of the block pointed to by ptr to the new size specified by size. The content up to the lessor of the old or new size is not changed. The function attempts to keep the same base address, but if that is not possible, a new base address is generated.
Note
This standard function comes with NuSystem.
