 NAME

   rpc_sm_enable_allocate - Enables the stub memory managment environment

 SYNOPSIS

   #include <rpc.h>
   void rpc_sm_enable_allocate( unsigned32 *status );

 PARAMETERS

   Output

   status    Returns the status code from this routine.  This status code
             indicates whether the routine completed successfully or, if
             not, why not.

             Possible status codes and their meanings include:

             rpc_s_ok      Success.

 DESCRIPTION

   Applications can call rpc_sm_enable_allocate to establish a stub memory
   management environment in cases where one is not established by the
   stub itself.  A stub memory management environment must be established
   before any calls are made to rpc_sm_allocate.  For server manager code
   called from the stub, the stub memory management environment is
   normally established by the stub itself.  Code that is called from
   other contexts needs to call rpc_sm_enable_allocate before calling
   rpc_sm_allocate.

   For a discussion of how spawned threads acquire a stub memory
   management environment, see the rpc_sm_get_thread_handle and
   rpc_sm_set_thread_handle reference pages.

 RETURN VALUES

   None
