If the built-in operator keyword new doesn't allocate memory on heap
and it calls global operator new (::operator new) or class member
operator new to do that. What are the two kinds of operator new used to
allocate heap memory?
Before there aren't global and member operator new, the built-in
operator keyword new does really allocate heap memory, right? 2 2990

It might be called somthing else but for most intents and purposes it
behaves just like memory allocated by malloc/free. You can't use free()
to release memory allocated by operator new or visa versa tho.

This is the confusing part of C++. When you have something like:
T* ptr = new T;
the followings are performed:
1. Either the default operator new or an overloaded version is called
to obtain raw memory large enough to fit a T object.
2. The constructor of T is called.
The operator new, as in the function you can overload, only allocates
raw memory. The keyword new does that plus constructing the object.
By default, new allocates memory from the heap, or the free store. You
can overloaded either globally or specific to a class to provide
alternate memory management, usually to
- tweak performance
- inspect memory allocation
- debug the program

That, I don't know.

Hello,
For several reasons I want to replace the built-in memory management with
some custom built. The mem management itlsef is not subject to my question -
it's ok to the point that I have nice and working allocation deallocation
routines. However, I don't want to loose the nice extras of new operator,
like - constructor calling, typecasting the result, keeping the array size,
etc.
For another bunch of reasons, outside this scope I...

Hello,
I want to make my garbage collector more safe. To make it more safe I
need to know if an object has been allocated on the stack or on the
heap using the operator new. My garbage collector uses a mixture of
reference counting and smart pointers. I have got a base class
("Object") which handles all the memory management stuff.
I have worked out different approaches to pass the info to my base
class (won't name all):

Operator overloading has a sort syntax rather than member function call
for stack based memory allocation.
like complex<int> c1,c2,c3;
c3= c1+c2;
How the same can be applied to heap based memory allocation?
like complex<int> * c1,*c2,*c3;
i still want to do something like c3 = c1+c2 ; rether than *c3 =
*c1+*c2;

Hi,
a general question on the "new" operator.
Creating object dynamically using "new" might lead to problems,
when e.g. not sufficient memory is available and the object could
not be created on the heap. Shouldn't thus not all "new" usages
be included in a try{} block in order to enable handling of potential
problems?
However, their must be reasons why this is not done since lots of
people just use "new" without any corresponding...

The C++ Standard Doesn't Permit Overloading new and delete?
In the 13.5 of The C++ standard (ISO/IEC 14882, 1998), I cannot find
the specification on overloading the operators new and delete; however,
many C++ books including "C++ Primer" say that the operators new and
delete can be overloaded. I wonder if this has definitive
specification? Who can tell me?
Many thanks to those who answer.

I have overloaded a new operater for a class that returns void * and i have
created an object for that class in heap as below.
CMyClass *pMyClass = new CMyClass(); // Here though i haven't explicitly
casted void* to CMyClass, the compiler doesnt give error at all.
But in c++ for void* to specific type ptr , explicite cast is required. What
was the cause for the above statement to work?

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
