Subject: Memory Management Question 2005-09-20 - By mud@(protected)

Hello!
I want to add some linked lists to my characters for Role Play notes.
I have a question about this:
When I make my nodes that will be put on the characters, I have to use malloc, calloc, etc, to allocate my own memory. Then I have to do all of the freeing myself since I am not using a "free_list" (Such as the room_index_free list for room indicies)?
I think I am right because I was reading memory.txt in fastrom and it said that instead of using free, it keeps track of a list of old zeroed out instances of whatever is on the list (ie: areas, rooms, mobs, etc).
My final question is: for anything that does not use the "free_list" I have to do it the way I described above (assuming if I am right!)
THANKS!
