C++ pointer to objects

Question

In C++ do you always have initialize a pointer to an object with the new keyword?

Or can you just have this too:

MyClass *myclass;

mycl         


        

Answer 1

if you want the object on the stack, try this:

MyClass myclass;
myclass.DoSomething();

If you need a pointer to that object:

MyClass* myclassptr = &myclass;
myclassptr->DoSomething();
