  2. new and delete (C++) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_and_delete_(C++)

    This requests a memory buffer from the free store that is large enough to hold a contiguous array of N objects of type T, and calls the default constructor on each element of the array. Memory allocated with the new[] must be deallocated with the delete[] operator, rather than delete. Using the inappropriate form results in undefined behavior ...

  3. Placement syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Placement_syntax

    A new expression, placement or otherwise, calls a new function, also known as an allocator function, whose name is operator new. Similarly, a delete expression calls a delete function, also known as a deallocator function, whose name is operator delete. [2] [3] Any new expression that uses the placement syntax is a placement new expression, and ...

  4. C dynamic memory allocation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_dynamic_memory_allocation

    The C++ programming language includes these functions; however, the operators new and delete provide similar functionality and are recommended by that language's authors. [4] Still, there are several situations in which using new / delete is not applicable, such as garbage collection code or performance-sensitive code, and a combination of ...

  5. Dynamic array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamic_array

    The dynamic array has performance similar to an array, with the addition of new operations to add and remove elements: Getting or setting the value at a particular index (constant time) Iterating over the elements in order (linear time, good cache performance) Inserting or deleting an element in the middle of the array (linear time)

  6. C++ syntax - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C++_syntax

    C++ also supports malloc and free, from C, but these are not compatible with new and delete. Use of new returns an address to the allocated memory. The C++ Core Guidelines advise against using new directly for creating dynamic objects in favor of smart pointers through make_unique < T > for single ownership and make_shared < T > for reference ...

  7. Dangling pointer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dangling_pointer

    A smart pointer typically uses reference counting to reclaim objects. Some other techniques include the tombstones method and the locks-and-keys method. [3] Another approach is to use the Boehm garbage collector, a conservative garbage collector that replaces standard memory allocation functions in C and C++ with a garbage collector. This ...

  8. Allocator (C++) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allocator_(C++)

    In particular, a class A capable of allocating memory for an object of type T must provide the types A::pointer, A::const_pointer, A::reference, A::const_reference, and A::value_type for generically declaring objects and references (or pointers) to objects of type T.

  9. Assignment operator (C++) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assignment_operator_(C++)

    In the C++ programming language, the assignment operator, =, is the operator used for assignment.Like most other operators in C++, it can be overloaded.. The copy assignment operator, often just called the "assignment operator", is a special case of assignment operator where the source (right-hand side) and destination (left-hand side) are of the same class type.
