Deleting an object

[Tomheza]

Good morning,
I have a task to create a certain amount of objects. However, an object has a variable called age. Once that variable reaches 10 it should be deleted. Is it possible? If it is how could i do that?

[boost lexical cast]

The code below creates a variable called age and deletes it once it reaches 10.

#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    int *pAge = new int;
    std::cout << "age created.\n\n";

    int &age = *pAge;
    age = 0;

    while (true)
    {
        std::cout << age << ' ' << std::flush;

        if (++age == 10)
        {
            delete pAge;
            std::cout << "\n\nage deleted.\n";

            break;
        }
    }

    return 0;
}

Note, the above frees the memory being used. Meaning other things are allowed to use that memory. But it will exist until something else starts using it.
