Question

As you know there is a generic class List in .NET framework.
I want to write a generic class List in C++ and i want to store pointers to a type in my list. this is header and source code of class and test program :

// header
template <class Type>
class List
{
public:
   List(int size);  // constructor
    .
    .
    . // other public members
private:
   Type **list; // a dynamic array of pointer to Type
    .
    .
    . // other private members 
};

// source code 
template <class Type> List<Type>::List(int size) // constructor
{
   this->list = new Type[size];
    .
    . // other parts of definition
}

// main function
void main()
{
    List<AnyType> mylist = new List<AnyType>(4);
    mylist[0] = new AnyType( // any arguments);
}

it does not work propertly. where is problem ? is it possible to use this class for Structs ?

Answer 1

this->list = new Type[size]; should be this->list = new Type*[size];

Edit: did it actually compile? The assignment should at least generate a warning.
