/**
* @defgroup PJ_POOL_BUFFER Stack/Buffer Based Memory Pool Allocator
* @ingroup PJ_POOL_GROUP
* @brief Stack/buffer based pool.
*
* This section describes an implementation of memory pool which uses
* memory allocated from the stack. Application creates this pool
* by specifying a buffer (which can be allocated from static memory or
* stack variable), and then use normal pool API to access/use the pool.
*
* If the buffer specified during pool creation is a buffer located in the
* stack, the pool will be invalidated (or implicitly destroyed) when the
* execution leaves the enclosing block containing the buffer. Note
* that application must make sure that any objects allocated from this
* pool (such as mutexes) have been destroyed before the pool gets
* invalidated.
*
* Sample usage:
*
* \code
#include <pjlib.h>
static void test()
{
char buffer[500];
pj_pool_t *pool;
void *p;
pool = pj_pool_create_on_buf("thepool", buffer, sizeof(buffer));
// Use the pool as usual
p = pj_pool_alloc(pool, ...);
...
// No need to release the pool
}
int main()
{
pj_init();
test();
return 0;
}
\endcode
