Hi,
in the below statement :
class A {
int *i;
A(){
};
main()
{
A* a=new A();
}
if suppose the constructor A() will create a socket and while doing
that it fails and we didnt catch the exception then will the variable
"a" gets the memory..??
Nothing will get the memory. The memory will be given back to the
"system". Unless, of course, someone re-implemented operator new and did
it incorrectly.
Thx for ur answer Daniel,
Please use complete words, like "Thanks for your...". This isn't a
text-messager, or instant messenger. A lot of people here are not native
English speakers, and have a hard enough time with English, without having
to also interpret "IM-speak".
i have a small doubt..
whats the situation if i didnt throw any exception from that
constructor and the socket creation has failed because of some
reason..?? ( we didnt use the exception handling for that failure )
If the creation of the socket fails, and no exception is thrown (either by
you or by the call to create the socket itself), then your object will be
created normally. But obviously you'll have problems later trying to use
the socket, won't you? :-)
Of course, we don't know anything about how you're attempting to create the
socket or what it does when it fails to create properly, so we can't tell
you what would happen if it "failed because of some reason".
