Is it necessary to call delete[] vs delete for char arrays?

char *p = new char[200];

delete p;

This kind of (I changed var name) code is from a big commercial project.

The third line. Is this right?
Should I change it or leave it there. Coz no bug report for this and this programs runs more than 4 years.

Thanks.

You have to use delete[] since you used new[], it’s not an alternative.

delete [] p;
