If you malloc() a large buffer and only write the beginning of it, it won't actually reserve physical RAM for the buffer that is unused, so while it will temporarily waste some address space, it won't actually be using the RAM.

Question: could you briefly explain the purpose of various LICE_*Bitmaps? thanks Asked by olilarkin (144.32.156.x) on December 19 2012, 3:39pm Reply on December 19 2012, 10:12pm: LICE_IBitmap: abstract interface for all lice bitmaps LICE_MemBitmap: bitmap backed by a malloc()'d buffer LICE_SysBitmap: bitmap backed by a buffer that also has a HDC associated with it (on OSX, this implies a SWELL HDC). For these, getDC() returns non-NULL. LICE_SubBitmap: a utility wrapper to have a subimage of another LICE_IBitmap. If you wish to clip drawing to a rectangle, you can use this. LICE_WrapperBitmap: used if you want to wrap some foreign buffer and make it accessible for LICE functions. Comment...
