# tibrvMsgData_Malloc()

Function

## Declaration

    void* tibrvMsgData_Malloc(
        tibrv_u32    size);

## Purpose

Allocate process storage for decoders and converters.

## Remarks

Decoders and converters must use this layer 1 function to allocate storage for extracted data. Do not use ordinary `malloc`.

The function returns a pointer to the storage. The storage remains associated with the message, and persists until the message is destroyed. Programmers need not free this storage; instead, the message automatically frees the storage at the appropriate time.

Decoders and converters that allocate storage using this function must pass back the type tibrvMsgData_MallocBlock.

Parameter | Description
`size` | Allocate a storage block of this size (in bytes).
