<h2 >The <code>upc_all_alloc</code>     </h2>

<h4>Synopsis</h4>
<pre> 
    #include &lt;upc.h&gt;
    shared void *upc_all_alloc(size_t nblocks, 
                               size_t nbytes);   
</pre>
<p>
<h4>Description</h4>

<p>
The <code>upc_all_alloc   </code> function allocates shared space compatible with the following
declaration:
<p><code>
shared [nbytes] char[nblocks * nbytes].
</code></p>
<p>
The <code>upc_all_alloc   </code> function returns the same pointer value on all threads.
If nblocks*nbytes is zero, the result is a null pointer-to-shared.
<p>The dynamic lifetime of an allocated object extends from the time any thread
completes the call to <code>upc_all_alloc   </code> until any thread has deallocated the
object.
