LIBRARY

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ck_bitmap.h>

       unsigned int
       ck_bitmap_size(unsigned int n_bits);

DESCRIPTION

       The  ck_bitmap_size()  function  returns  the number of bytes that are necessary to allocate for a bitmap
       that will contain the number of bits specified by n_bits.

       This function is used to determine how many bytes to allocate for dynamically created bitmap objects. The
       allocated object must still be initialized using ck_bitmap_init(3).

RETURN VALUES

       This function returns a non-zero value.
