Class Description

                                                                      
 TStorage                                                             
                                                                      
 Storage manager. The storage manager works best in conjunction with  
 the custom ROOT new and delete operators defined in the file         
 NewDelete.cxx (libNew.so). Only when using the custom allocation     
 operators will memory usage statistics be gathered using the         
 TStorage EnterStat(), RemoveStat(), etc. functions.                  
 Memory checking is by default enabled (when using libNew.so) and     
 usage statistics is gathered. Using the resource (in .rootrc):       
 Root.MemStat one can toggle statistics gathering on or off. More     
 specifically on can trap the allocation of a block of memory of a    
 certain size. This can be specified using the resource:              
 Root.MemStat.size, using the resource Root.MemStat.cnt one can       
 specify after how many allocations of this size the trap should      
 occur.                                                               
 Set the compile option R__NOSTATS to de-activate all memory checking 
 and statistics gathering in the system.                              
                                                                      


void EnterStat(size_t size, void *p)
 Register a memory allocation operation. If desired one can trap an
 allocation of a certain size in case one tries to find a memory
 leak of that particular size. This function is only called via
 the ROOT custom new operators.

void RemoveStat(void *vp)
 Register a memory free operation. This function is only called via
 the custom ROOT delete operator.

void* Alloc(size_t size)
 Allocate a block of memory, that later can be resized using
 TStorage::ReAlloc().

void Dealloc(void *ptr)
 De-allocate block of memory, that was allocated via TStorage::Alloc().

void* ReAlloc(void *ovp, size_t size)
 Reallocate (i.e. resize) block of memory.

void* ReAlloc(void *ovp, size_t size, size_t oldsize)
 Reallocate (i.e. resize) block of memory. Checks if current size is
 equal to oldsize. If not memory was overwritten.

char* ReAllocChar(char *ovp, size_t size, size_t oldsize)
 Reallocate (i.e. resize) array of chars. Size and oldsize are
 in number of chars.

Int_t* ReAllocInt(Int_t *ovp, size_t size, size_t oldsize)
 Reallocate (i.e. resize) array of integers. Size and oldsize are
 number of integers (not number of bytes).

void* ObjectAlloc(size_t sz)
 Used to allocate a TObject on the heap (via TObject::operator new()).
 Directly after this routine one can call (in the TObject ctor)
 TStorage::IsOnHeap() to find out if the just created object is on
 the heap.

void* ObjectAlloc(size_t , void *vp)
 Used to allocate a TObject on the heap (via TObject::operator new(size_t,void*))
 in position vp. vp is already allocated (maybe on heap, maybe on
 stack) so just return.

void ObjectDealloc(void *vp)
 Used to deallocate a TObject on the heap (via TObject::operator delete()).

void ObjectDealloc(void *vp, void *ptr)
 Used to deallocate a TObject on the heap (via TObject::operator delete(void*,void*)).

void SetFreeHook(FreeHookFun_t fh, void *data)
 Set a free handler.

void SetReAllocHooks(ReAllocFun_t rh1, ReAllocCFun_t rh2)
 Set a custom ReAlloc handlers. This function is typically
 called via a static object in the ROOT libNew.so shared library.

void PrintStatistics()
 Print memory usage statistics.

void EnableStatistics(int size, int ix)
 Enable memory usage statistics gathering. Size is the size of the memory
 block that should be trapped and ix is after how many such allocations
 the trap should happen.
