- BEGIN/END license blocks
Developers should add non license comments as separate comment blocks.
No need for separator text.
- Contributors
This is often invalid, outdated or misleading
especially when splitting files.
It's more useful to git-blame to find out who has developed the code.
See P901 for script to perform these edits.
- assert if BLI_buffer_at() is called with an out of bounds value.
- add BLI_buffer_resize_data() macro which resizes and returns a pointer to the new array.
- warn if missing call to BLI_buffer_free().
- add option to calloc or not, existing code wasnt consistent here, would calloc on first alloc but not on realloc, also - the static memory was never zero'd.
use flag BLI_BUFFER_USE_CALLOC to ensure all new memory is zero'd (static/alloc/realloc's).
- add BLI_buffer_declare_static / BLI_buffer_declare so its possible to have a buffer that never uses static memory.
BLI_buffer is a dynamic homogeneous array similar to BLI_array, but it
allocates a structure that can be passed around making it possible to
resize the array outside the function it was declared in.
