Hi,

I've posted this through gtk-app-devel list but no good response. So
that I'm doing cross post here.

Here is my situation.
I'm using GLib in my application, and I'm using g_object_new to allocate
memory of an object. As in C++ specification, there is "new" placement
technique that can allow us to place a new object into our predefined
memory region. And we can also do with malloc by redefine the malloc
fuction.

I wonder if we can do it with g_object_new or not? The purpose is to
have g_object_new to allocate memory on my own memory region.

Thanks,
-Hieu

Please don't, this list is for discussing development of
the glib and gtk+ libraries, not applications using it.

No, this is not possible. GObjects are allocated through
g_slice which uses posix_memalign and falls back on g_malloc
for very big chunks (greater than 1kb). See glib/glib/gmem.h
for an API related to malloc hooks.
