Re: Deleting a passed-by-reference object in a function

Is it okay to delete an new'ed object in the function that has been
passed-by-reference.

Please check the statement "delete pCalled;" in the following code
snippet.

void Test(int& i)
{
    int* pCalled = &i;
    printf("Address in Called: %d\n", pCalled);
    delete pCalled;
}

int main()
{
    int* pCaller = new int(10);
    printf("Address in Caller: %d\n", pCaller);
    Test(*pCaller);
}

The thing is that it is running fine in VC and the pointer also has the
same value. But, what I am wondering is that is it possible that this is a
platform-specific implementation of the compiler and this code might break
on other platforms, or is it a defined behavior and perfectly legal in
C++?
