<p>
Memory is usually created by allocators with a <a class="link" href="GstAllocator.html#gst-allocator-alloc" title="gst_allocator_alloc ()"><code class="function">gst_allocator_alloc()</code></a>
method call. When NULL is used as the allocator, the default allocator will
be used.
</p>
<p>
New allocators can be registered with <a class="link" href="GstAllocator.html#gst-allocator-register" title="gst_allocator_register ()"><code class="function">gst_allocator_register()</code></a>.
Allocators are identified by name and can be retrieved with
<a class="link" href="GstAllocator.html#gst-allocator-find" title="gst_allocator_find ()"><code class="function">gst_allocator_find()</code></a>. <a class="link" href="GstAllocator.html#gst-allocator-set-default" title="gst_allocator_set_default ()"><code class="function">gst_allocator_set_default()</code></a> can be used to change the
default allocator.
</p>
<p>
New memory can be created with <a class="link" href="GstAllocator.html#gst-memory-new-wrapped" title="gst_memory_new_wrapped ()"><code class="function">gst_memory_new_wrapped()</code></a> that wraps the memory
allocated elsewhere.

Use <em class="parameter"><code>allocator</code></em> to allocate a new memory block with memory that is at least
<em class="parameter"><code>size</code></em> big.
</p>
<p>
The optional <em class="parameter"><code>params</code></em> can specify the prefix and padding for the memory. If
NULL is passed, no flags, no extra prefix/padding and a default alignment is
used.

The prefix/padding will be filled with 0 if flags contains
