*string allocates it's own copy of the string, so your pmem pointer is leaked. STL's string templates manage their own memory, you never need to use new or delete to [de]allocate for them. --Mark Storer Software Engineer Cardiff Software #include <disclaimer> typdef std::disclaimer<Cardiff> Discard;

why does this leak memory from the first call to "new"? how can I prevent the leak?
wchar_t* pmem = new wchar_t[10]; boost::shared_ptrstd::wstring cp ( new std::wstring(pmem) );
thanks for the help, .Aaron
