Re: [GD-General] memory checking

[ReJ <re...@sc...>]

Hi Timo,


be aware of new and delete redefinition in  Paul Nettle's Memory Manager:

mmgr.h
#define new (m_setOwner (__FILE__,__LINE__,__FUNCTION__),false) ? NULL : new
#define delete (m_setOwner (__FILE__,__LINE__,__FUNCTION__),false) ?
m_setOwner("",0,"") : delete

This may cause problems if you are defining your new/delete operators or
using libraries like std or boost.
There are some solutions discussed in thread topic, however it's not always
possible.
