// These classes let you write your own allocators to be used with new and delete.
// If you have an allocator: VAllocator *pAlloc, you can call new and delete like this:
//
// ptr = VNew(pAlloc) ClassName;
// VDelete(pAlloc, ptr);
//
// Note: allocating and freeing arrays of objects will not work using VAllocators.
