I would like to write my own "new".

I am just trying to intercept all calls to "new" so that memory allocation
comes from a block of memory I have set aside.
How does the contsuctor get called after the memory allocation?

Thanks,

Geoff

go to comp.lang.c++

Unless you meant something else...
#include<new.h>

void * operator new ( size_t t ) {

     // grab t bytes
     return t bytes ;
    }

The ctor will be invoked in this returned chunk of memory by the
compiler. So don t make the mistake of invoking the ctor inside the
definition.

PS : comp.lang.C++.moderated is a better place for C++ related postings.
