GetMem Allocates Memory for Dynamic Variables
GetMem(var P : <pointer>; Amt : Integer);
Allocates Amt bytes of memory on the heap and assigns P equal to a
pointer to the bytes allocated. To deallocate this memory, you must
call FreeMem with the same value for Amt. The contents of the memory
allocated are not initialized to any particular value.
P A pointer to any data type.
Amt Number of bytes to be allocated.
-------------------------------- Example ---------------------------------
GetMem(P,SizeOf(P^)); { Allocate a block of memory }
{ to hold the data type }
{ pointed to by P. }
