Hi all,

This is one of the problems that I face regularly. We may use
memset to initilize such a integer array. But how can we create an
array of objects from a class which doesn't have a default
constructor? Earlier c++ compilers allowed us to use a syntax like
this

intaiMyArray[10](0); //Initializeall the array elements to zero.
But newer ones doesn't allow this, is there a reason to remove this
functionality?

Thanks,
Tharinda

I know memset is not recommended in c++, then what should we use?, i
hate to use vectors to implement a simple task like this since they
look nasty when debugging :(

Ok, so this isn't a language problem after all - what about using a
better debugger?

Some of them CAN show the contents of a std::vector.
