cygwin_create_path(3)	      Programmer's Manual	 cygwin_create_path(3)

NAME
       cygwin_create_path

SYNOPSIS
       extern "C" void *
       cygwin_create_path (cygwin_conv_path_t what, const void * from);

DESCRIPTION
       This is equivalent to the  cygwin_conv_path (, except that  cygwin_cre‐
       ate_path ( does not take a buffer pointer for the result of the conver‐
       sion  as	 input.	  Rather  it allocates the buffer itself using	malloc
       ((3) and returns a pointer to this buffer.  In case of error it returns
       NULL  and sets errno to one of the values defined for  cygwin_conv_path
       (.  Additionally errno can  be  set  to	the  below  value.	ENOMEM
       Insufficient  memory  was  available.  When you don't need the returned
       buffer anymore,	use  free  ((3)	 to  deallocate	 it.  See  also	  cyg‐
       win_conv_path (3)
