describing the characteristics of the memory pool, a policy class
containing this pool that links instantiation types to common or
individual pools, and a class inheriting from the policy class that is
the actual allocator.
</p><p>The datum describing pools characteristics is
</p><pre class="programlisting">
template<bool _Thread>
class __pool
</pre><p> This class is parametrized on thread support, and is explicitly
specialized for both multiple threads (with <code class="code">bool==true</code>)
and single threads (via <code class="code">bool==false</code>.) It is possible to
use a custom pool datum instead of the default class that is provided.
</p><p> There are two distinct policy classes, each of which can be used
with either type of underlying pool datum.
</p><pre class="programlisting">
template<bool _Thread>
struct __common_pool_policy
template<typename _Tp, bool _Thread>
struct __per_type_pool_policy
</pre><p> The first policy, <code class="code">__common_pool_policy</code>, implements a
common pool. This means that allocators that are instantiated with
different types, say <code class="code">char</code> and <code class="code">long</code> will both
use the same pool. This is the default policy.
</p><p> The second policy, <code class="code">__per_type_pool_policy</code>, implements
a separate pool for each instantiating type. Thus, <code class="code">char</code>
and <code class="code">long</code> will use separate pools. This allows per-type
tuning, for instance.
</p><p> Putting this all together, the actual allocator class is
</p><pre class="programlisting">
template<typename _Tp, typename _Poolp = __default_policy>
class __mt_alloc : public __mt_alloc_base<_Tp>, _Poolp
</pre><p> This class has the interface required for standard library allocator
classes, namely member functions <code class="code">allocate</code> and
<code class="code">deallocate</code>, plus others.
