Auto Assembler alloc(SymbolName, Size, AllocateNearThisAddress OPTIONAL)
Allocates a memory block of Size bytes and defines the SymbolName in the script, pointing to the beginning of the allocated memory block. If the optional parameter AllocateNearThisAddress is specified then the CE will try to allocate the memory near to this address (this is useful for 64-bit targets where the jump distance could be bigger than 2GB otherwise).
Note: Use dealloc to free the memory when done.
Note2: There are 2 other alloc variants: allocnx and allocxo. allocnx will allocate memory as non-executable. allocxo will allocate memory as execute only. (These are required when using a Mac)
Command Parameters[edit]
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| SymbolName | string | The symbol name to use for allocated memory |
| Size | integer | The byte size of the block of memory to allocate |
| AllocateNearThisAddress | string | The address to allocate near if given |
Examples[edit]

alloc(SomeSymbol, 0x1000)
alloc(SomeSymbol, $1000)
