Does std::vector.clear() do delete (free memory) on each element?

Question

Consider this code:

#include 

void Example()
{
    std::vector list;
    TCHAR* pLine = new TCHAR[20];
    list.push_back(pLine)         


        

Answer 1

You could just write a simple template function that does this for you:

template 
void deleteInVector(vector* deleteme) {
    while(!deleteme->empty()) {
        delete deleteme->back();
        deleteme->pop_back();
    }

    delete deleteme;
}

Maybe something in here is bad practice but I don't think so. It looks okay to me though comments are always nice.
