Assigning a pointer to a variable doesn't allocate memory (the compiler and runtime libraries already setup storage for the variable, at declaration time). So, I have no idea what you mean with the "called within a function" part. -- Mel Problem with today's modular software: they start with the modules and never get to the software part. _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
