.SH DESCRIPTION
These routines are used to allocate/deallocate memory used/returned
by the LDAP library.
.BR ldap_memalloc (),
.BR ldap_memcalloc (),
.BR ldap_memrealloc (),
and
.BR ldap_memfree ()
are used exactly like the standard
.BR malloc (3),
.BR calloc (3),
.BR realloc (3),
and
.BR free (3)
routines, respectively.
The
.BR ldap_memvfree ()
routine is used to free a dynamically allocated array of pointers to
arbitrary dynamically allocated objects.
The
.BR ldap_strdup ()
routine is used exactly like the standard
.BR strdup (3)
routine.
