deleting array elements seperately

[elfeck]

Hello,

is it possible to replace a

delete[] myarray;

call with a

for(int i = 0; i < arraySize; i++) {
    delete myarray[i];
}

Thanks in advance!

As far as I know, no. Every new[] must be followed by a delete[], and every new must be followed by a delete.
Typically, this is what you'd use STL containers for.

If you add a reference operator to myarray[i], like delete &myarray[i], the code seems to be fine.

@The illusionist mirage: sure, ¿who cares for undefined behaviour?
