Dynamically allocating an array of objects

Question

I have a class that contains a dynamically allocated array, say

class A
{
    int* myArray;
    A()
    {
        myArray = 0;
    }
    A(int size)
    {
           


        

Answer 1

Why not have a setSize method.

A* arrayOfAs = new A[5];
for (int i = 0; i < 5; ++i)
{
    arrayOfAs[i].SetSize(3);
}

I like the "copy" but in this case the default constructor isn't really doing anything. The SetSize could copy the data out of the original m_array (if it exists).. You'd have to store the size of the array within the class to do that.
OR
The SetSize could delete the original m_array.

void SetSize(unsigned int p_newSize)
{
    //I don't care if it's null because delete is smart enough to deal with that.
    delete myArray;
    myArray = new int[p_newSize];
    ASSERT(myArray);
}
