[Frama-c-discuss] WP and Allocations



Dear Emperor,

Unfortunately, there is no (not yet) such a reasonable way of reasoning about allocation with WP.
Memory models _are_ already able to deal with allocation: eg. they do so for managing the scope of local variables.
However, implementation of ACSL clauses dealing with allocation is still not implemented yet, by lack of founded project
that would require this feature.

However, you can still simulate the effect of (typed instanced of) `malloc()` calls by returning pointers
in a global (ghost) pre-allocated array.

Best regards,
	L.
