28 DESCRIPTION
29 -----------
30
31
32 The :c:func:`hashkit_create` function initializes a hashkit object for use. If
33 you pass a NULL argument for hash, then the memory for the object is
34 allocated. If you specify a pre-allocated piece of memory, that is
35 initialized for use.
36
37 The :c:func:`hashkit_clone` function initializes a hashkit object much like
38 :c:func:`hashkit_create`, but instead of using default settings it will use
39 the settings of the ptr hashkit object.
40
41 The :c:func:`hashkit_free` frees any resources being consumed by the hashkit
42 objects that were initialized with :c:func:`hashkit_create` or :c:func:`hashkit_clone`.
43
44 The :c:func:`hashkit_is_allocated` reports where the memory was allocated
45 for a hashkit object.

49 RETURN VALUE
50 ------------
51
52
53 :c:func:`hashkit_create` and :c:func:`hashkit_clone` will return NULL on
54 failure or non-NULL on success.
55
56 :c:func:`hashkit_is_allocated` returns true if the memory for the hashkit
57 object was allocated inside of :c:func:`hashkit_create` or
58 :c:func:`hashkit_clone`, otherwise it is false and was user-supplied memory.
