What's the problem occurs during allocating an Array dynamically?

Actually I'm trying to define an Array dynamically by using "new". So, here is the syntax... int *array,size; cin>>size; array=new int[size]; During this memory allocation I found that, the array only takes 8 bytes of memory no matter how big I want that Array to be. Please, tell me where I'm wrong?

That is actually the size of the pointer.

How do you determine that? If you only do sizeof(array) you will just get the size of the pointer. sizeof(array[1]) for example is 4 bytes, like it should be.
