\defgroup FuncMemAllocator Using allocators with Gecode
\ingroup FuncMem

%Gecode provides two allocator classes that can be used with
generic data structures such as those of the STL
(e.g. <tt>std::set</tt>). Memory can be allocated from the space heap
(see Space) or from a region (see Region).
 
\section FuncMemAllocatorA Using allocators with dynamic data structures

There are two possible scenarios for allocator usage. One is to
let the dynamic data structure allocate memory from the space or
region:

\code
struct MySpace : public Space {
  typedef std::set<int, std::less<int>, Gecode::space_allocator<int> > S;
  S safe_set;

  MySpace(void)
    : safe_set(S::key_compare(), S::allocator_type(*this))
  {}

  MySpace(bool share, MySpace& other)
    : Space(share, other), 
      safe_set(other.safe_set.begin(), other.safe_set.end(), 
               S::key_compare(), S::allocator_type(*this))
  {}

  ...
};
\endcode

In this example, \a S is a set that allocates its nodes from the
space heap. Note that we pass an instance of space_allocator
bound to this space to the constructor of the set. A similar
thing must be done in the copying constructor, where we must be
sure to pass an allocator that allocates memory from the
destination ("this") space, not "other".  Note that the set
itself is a member of \a MySpace, so it is destroyed within
<i>MySpace::~MySpace</i> as usual.  The set destructor destroys
all contained items and deallocates all nodes in its destructors.

\section FuncMemAllocatorB Preventing unnecessary destruction overhead

In the above example, we know that the value type in \a S is a
builtin type and does not have a destructor.  So what happens
during \a safe_set destruction is that it just deallocates all
nodes. However, we know that all nodes were allocated from the
space heap, which is going to disappear with the space anyway.
If we prevent calling \a safe_set destructor, we may save a
significant amount of time during space destruction.  A safe way
of doing this is to allocate the set object itself on the space
heap, and keep only a reference to it as a member of the
space. We can use the convenience helpers Space::construct for
the construction.

\code
struct MySpace : public Space {
  typedef std::set<int, std::less<int>, Gecode::space_allocator<int> > S;
  S& fast_set;

  MySpace(void)
    : fast_set(construct<S>(S::key_compare(), S::allocator_type(*this)))
  {}

  MySpace(bool share, MySpace& other)
    : Space(share, other), 
	fast_set(construct<S>(other.safe_set.begin(), other.safe_set.end(), 
	S::key_compare(), S::allocator_type(*this)))
  {}

  ...
};
\endcode

\section FuncMemAllocatorC Region example

The above examples were using a space_allocator. A region_allocator
works similarly, one just should keep in mind that regions never
really release any memory. Similar to Space, Region provides
helper functions Region::construct to make non-stack allocation
easy.

\code
Space& home = ...;
typedef std::set<int, std::less<int>, Gecode::region_allocator<int> > SR;
// Create a set with the region allocator. Note that the set destructor is still quite costly...
{
  Region r(home);
  SR r_safe_set(SR::key_compare(), (SR::allocator_type(r)));
  for(int i=0; i<10000; ++i)
    r_safe_set.insert(i*75321%10000);
}
// Create a set directly in the region (not on the stack). No destructors will be called.
{
  Region r(*this);
  SR& r_fast_set=r.construct<SR>(SR::key_compare(), SR::allocator_type(r));
  for(int i=0; i<10000; ++i)
    r_fast_set.insert(i*75321%10000);
}
\endcode
