c++ dynamic memory allocation using “new”

Question

I\'m new to C++, trying to learn by myself (I\'ve got Java background).

There\'s this concept of dynamic memory allocation that I can assign to an array (for example

For static allocation, you must specify the size as a constant:

  MyObj  arrObject[5];

For dynamic allocation, that can be varied at run-time:

  MyObj  *arrObject = new MyObj[n];

The different between new and malloc is that new will call the ctor for all those objects in the array, while malloc just gives you raw memory.
