How to get a byte aligned memory for SSE instructions.

Question

I'd like to get a aligned memory for SSE instruction on AE CS5.5. 
Does any one know the way to get an aligned memory in the AE memory management framework?
Very best regards.

Answer 1

Sorry for lack of explanation.
In my plugin, I usually allocate memory by following way.
int bufferSize = imageWidth * imageHeight * 4;
AEGP_SuiteHandler suites(in_data->pica_basicP);
PH_Handle handler = (PF_Handle)suites.HandleSuite1()->host_new_handle(sizeof(float) * bufferSize);
float *p = reinterpret_cast<T*>(suites.HandleSuite1()->host_lock_handle(handler));
// The code below does not work
for(int h = 0; h < imageHeight; h++)
  for(int w = 0; w < imageWidth; w++)
  index = imageWidth * h * 4 + w * 4;
  __m128 s = _mm_loadu_ps(p + index);
// dispose memory
suites.HandleSuite1()->host_unlock_handle(handler);
suites.HandleSuite1()->host_dispose_handle(handler);
The allocated memory is not aligned to a 16-byte boundary, right?
I'd like to know whether we can allocate a memory (suitable for SSE) with 16-byte boundary using AE SDK or not.
Thanks a lot.
