 NAME

   get_temporary_buffer	- Pointer based	primitive for handling memory

 SYNOPSIS

   #include <memory>

   template <class T>
   pair<T*, ptrdiff_t> get_temporary_buffer (ptrdiff_t, T*);

 DESCRIPTION

   The get_temporary_buffer templated function reserves from system
   memory the largest possible buffer that is less than or equal to
   the size requested (n*sizeof(T)), and returns a pair<T*,
   ptrdiff_t>  containing the address and size of that buffer.	The
   units used  to describe the capacity	are in sizeof(T).
