Allocating memory to Windows C code

Question

I would like to know which method is recommended for programming in Windows C: using the malloc or Win32 HeapAlloc function (perhaps VirtualAlloc?).

I read the MSDN article Memory Management Functions and the MSDN articles regarding malloc and HeapAlloc, but they do not say what to use and in what situations.

Answer 1

Stick to malloc unless you have a good reason to use something else. It will be implemented under the primitives of OS memory allocation, but there is no real advantage in immersing yourself in this level.
