Function Documentation

bool psMemCheckScalar (  psPtr  ptr  )

Checks the type of a particular pointer. Uses the appropriate deallocation function in psMemBlock to check the ptr datatype. Returns: bool: True if the pointer matches a psScalar structure, false otherwise. Parameters: ptr  the pointer whose type to check

psScalar* psScalarAlloc (  complex  value, psElemType  type )

Allocate a scalar. Uses psLib memory allocation functions to create scalar data as defined by the psType type. Accepts a complex 64 bit float for input value, as max size, but resizes according to correct type. Returns: psScalar* Pointer to a new psScalar. Parameters: value  Data to be put into psScalar. type  Type of data to be held by psScalar.

psScalar* psScalarCopy (  const psScalar *  value  )

Copy a scalar. Uses psLib memory allocation functions to copy a scalar. Returns: psScalar* A copy of the input scalar Parameters: value  Scalar to copy.
