How to make delete work with overloaded new

Question

Hi

I have overloaded operator new to observe the number of bytes allocated on heap.

Now this throws warning when delete is called.how to get rid off this ? How to typecast void* returned from overloaded new to proper class type

Also how to make operator overloaded for new and new[] differently.

Answer 1

Using operator ::new(t) in your overloaded operator new causes infinite recursion because it calls itself

The literal '1' is a character with an ASCII value of 49 so new Test['1'] allocates 49 objects

sizeof(ptr1) returns the size of the pointer not the size of the object; use sizeof(Test) for that

Hope this will help

Memory allocated with new[] must be deallocated with delete[] not delete
