allocrdsrec - allocates memory for a rectangle(3) man2html: unable to open or read file

SYNOPSYS

#include"rdsnnn.h"
rdsrec_list *allocrdsrec( Size )
  unsigned int Size;

PARAMETER

Size
Size of the added structure to the rdsrec_list structure.

DESCRIPTION

Allocates a memory block for rdsrec_list structure and an added structure defined by the user. Fields contained in the two structures are set to NULL for pointers and 0L for numbers.

NOTE: Allocation by heap ( see rdsalloc function ).

RETURN VALUE

The pointer to the rectangle structure allocated.

ERRORS

"Rds202: rdsalloc error, can't continue !"
it's impossible to allocate the memory size desired.
