Synopsis
Allocate a measurement result buffer.
Syntax
MIL_ID MmeasAllocResult(
MIL_ID SystemId, //in
MIL_INT64 ResultType, //in
MIL_ID *MeasResultIdPtr //out
)
Description

This function allocates a buffer, on the specified system, to store results obtained from an MmeasCalculate() operation. When the result buffer is no longer required, release its memory using MmeasFree(). Note that you do not need a result buffer for an MmeasFindMarker() operation; results are stored with the marker.

Note that this function reference has not been updated for a MIL system added during a MIL update. Refer to the MIL system's release note to see if there is complementary information.
Parameters
This function is not supported on the selected boards.
Parameters
SystemId INQ

Specifies the system on which to allocate the result buffer.

This parameter should be set to one of the following values:

function map For specifying the system identifier
CollapseValue Description
Collapse M_DEFAULT_HOST

Specifies the default Host system of the current MIL application.

Collapse MIL system identifier

Specifies a valid system identifier, previously allocated using MsysAlloc().

ResultType INQ

Specifies the type of result buffer to allocate.

This parameter can be set to one of the following values:

function map For specifying the type of result buffer to allocate
CollapseValue Description
Collapse M_DEFAULT

Same as M_CALCULATE.

Collapse M_CALCULATE

Allocates a result buffer for an MmeasCalculate() operation.

MeasResultIdPtr

Specifies the address of the variable in which the measurement result identifier is to be written. If allocation fails, M_NULL is returned as the identifier. Since the MmeasAllocResult() function also returns the measurement result identifier, you can set this parameter to M_NULL.

Return value
The returned value is the result buffer identifier if the allocation is successful. If allocation fails, M_NULL is returned.
