C++ how to delete a structure?

Question

Structure I created:

   struct VideoSample
  { 
      const unsigned char * buffer;
      int len;
  };

   VideoSample * newVideoSample = new VideoSample;
          


        

Answer 1

To Allocate -> VideoSample * newVideoSample = new VideoSample;

To Delete -> delete newVideoSample;

If you deleting the object in the same context, you better just allocate it on the stack. If you deleting it outside the context don't forget to pass a reference.

And most important, don't delete if your about to exit process, it's pointless :P
