Hi,

I'm new to Ada and have a question on memory management. Is
there a function like malloc in Ada ? I want just a pointer
to a certain amount of raw storage.

I think "new Storage_Array (n)" will give me a little bit too
much storage. The array bounds need some space.

Does "Allocate (some_storage_pool, addr, n, Word_Size / Storage_Unit)"
work ? Which storage pool do I have to choose ?

Thanks
