Overloading new And delete Operator In C++

[@hardiksavsaviya659]

Nicely you have explained, covered major points. I have few points which I want to add here to make your content more beautiful. 1. usually when we create a dynamic memory for a user-defined data type using a new operator constructor is automatically called but when dynamic memory is allocated using malloc it dose not call to the constructor. but with your example after used malloc constructor is called. Reason: malloc is called inside new. first new is executed by the compiler and due to the new operator compiler its self call to constructor. This means the new operator only does memory creation, but the new keyword informs the compiler to call the constructor for the user-defined data type. 2. if we overload the delete operator inside the class then we declare as void operator delete( void *p, size_t sz); here the second argument says what size of memory you are going to deallocate

Beautifully explained.

Thanks man, you saved my day .. nice explanation.

11:23 When operator new and operator new[] (Array version) are doing the same task when there is a need to overload the new operator with array version? Thanks for a clear explanation.

[@bharathupadhya]

very nice video bro..thanks for creating these videos..

[@amritkanoi8804]

11:23, you need to overload explicitly new[ ] when you are creating an array of non-primitive type objects

Thanks a lot for the video

My pleasure

[@KNT_19]

Basic question. Why to overload new operator? If we have an user defined class, then why to overload new operator for that class? In any way, user defined class's constructor will be called and in constructor we do all initializations. Can you give sample code(for user defined class) where actual usage of overloading new is required.

[@rajeshgowda6884]

Very good explanation..superb

[@CppNuts]

Thanks man!!

[@feraudyh]

Can I use an overloaded delete/new pair to check I am not doing a double delete? One idea that comes to mind is to store the set of deleted pointers every time I do a delete, and use this to check if I am not trying to delete twice. However if I have a set of classes designed by others that do deletes, I am probably not overloading the delete that this library calls.

[@CppNuts]

Smart pointers?

[@feraudyh]

@@CppNuts I've got legacy code. I don't know much about the strategy of upgrading to smart pointers.

[@rahulr9301]

excellent video brother!!!!...Thanks much. i have one doubt can we return NULL from overloaded new operator??

[@avishekdutta1901]

*static_cast=val; what is the use of the two '*' symbol here... Plzz explain!!!!!!

[@CppNuts]

Why int*p only int* is needed.

[@hsaidinsan6345]

Avishek Dutta This is because static_cast(p) will cast p to a pointer to int, and if you need to access its content (dereference it) you need to use * again, so it will be like this *(static_cast(p))= val;

@@CppNuts Sir, there is a error when deleting the dynamically allocated memory in a class, when delete is in the destructor in the same class eventhough we use the copy constructor?

[@ravivemisetti248]

Thanks for the videos, I have few doubts 1. While overloading new, default cnstor not called, in case of delete it is called default destructor. 2. If I added virtual fun it is giving error. Please clarify if possible

Hi Rupesh sir.. Can we allocate memory using malloc and deallocate using delete ?

[@vikramm4967]

only the first index is assigned as the given val in case of array, how to assign each and evey index of the array?

[@vima9046]

Hello! I am used to using c# and i am new in c++, can you (or someone here) explain me why after the constructor "Text(x=0)" you put ":x{x} {}"? What does this syntax mean?

How can i use both placement new and overload new operator?

Sir we are not casting void pointer to class. Than how it's working

[@AbhijeeetKumarSrivastavakshiva]

what happens If I allocate with int *prt new int[n]; and delete ptr?? Will the n memory blocks be deleted or only one block will be deleted?

[@CppNuts]

Yes it should delete only one.

[@thejask2765]

@@CppNuts I thought new() & delete() or malloc() & free() has to be used correspondingly to allocate and deallocate memory from heap. But this following program surprises me. Can you explain how can this possible with utmost clarity and without using generalised statements like this, here, that, there , it , this pointer , which pointer , that pointer etc. Here goes program segment. // CPP program to demonstrate // Overloading new and delete operator // for a specific class #include #include using namespace std; class student { string name; int age; public: student() { coutname = name; this->age = age; } void display() { cout

[@sumitkumar-gn1oe]

iostream inside new function is not suggested

[@aryanagrawal3719]

Well malloc() is not used . Operator new is used.

[@aniketahir101]

@umair alvi . when u store void pointer into any pointer container or pointer variable, it gets implicitely typecasted into the type of pointer variable.

[@umairalvi7382]

@@aniketahir101 try to do this with malloc() you will get an error. Int *p=malloc(sizeof(int)); This will give you an error in c++ but not in C.In C implicit type casting is done here.
