</li><li> the value is smaller than the number of array elements provided in <a href="aggregate_initialization.html" title="cpp/language/aggregate initialization">the brace-enclosed initializer</a> (including the terminating <code>'\0'</code> on a <a href="string_literal.html" title="cpp/language/string literal">string literal</a>)

<p>If the value in the first dimension is erroneous for any of these reasons, 
</p>
<ul><li> if, after conversion to <span class="t-lc">std::size_t</span>, the first dimension is a <a href="constant_expression.html" title="cpp/language/constant expression">core constant expression</a>, the program is ill-formed (a compile-time error is issued).

<p>The first dimension of zero is acceptable, and the allocation function is called.

<h4><span class="editsection">[<a href="http://en.cppreference.com/mwiki/index.php?title=cpp/language/new&amp;action=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section: Allocation">edit</a>]</span> <span class="mw-headline" id="Allocation">Allocation</span></h4>
<p>The new-expression allocates storage by calling the appropriate <a href="../memory/new/operator_new.html" title="cpp/memory/new/operator new"> allocation function</a>. If <code>type</code> is a non-array type, the name of the function is <code>operator new</code>. If <code>type</code> is an array type, the name of the function is <code>operator new[]</code>. 
</p><p>As described in <a href="../memory/new/operator_new.html" title="cpp/memory/new/operator new"> allocation function</a>, the C++ program may provide global and class-specific replacements for these functions. If the new-expression begins with the optional <span class="t-c"><span class="mw-geshi cpp source-cpp"><span class="sy4">::</span></span></span> operator, as in <span class="t-c"><span class="mw-geshi cpp source-cpp"><span class="sy4">::</span><span class="me2">new</span> T</span></span> or <span class="t-c"><span class="mw-geshi cpp source-cpp"><span class="sy4">::</span><span class="me2">new</span> T<span class="br0">&#91;</span>n<span class="br0">&#93;</span></span></span>, class-specific replacements will be ignored (the function is <a href="lookup.html" title="cpp/language/lookup">looked up</a> in global <a href="scope.html" title="cpp/language/scope">scope</a>). Otherwise, if <code>T</code> is a class type, it is looked up in the scope of <code>T</code> first.
</p><p>When calling the allocation function, the new-expression passes the number of bytes requested as the first argument, of type <span class="t-c"><span class="mw-geshi cpp source-cpp"><a href="../types/size_t.html"><span class="kw100">std::<span class="me2">size_t</span></span></a></span></span>, which is exactly <span class="t-c"><span class="mw-geshi cpp source-cpp">sizeof<span class="br0">&#40;</span>T<span class="br0">&#41;</span></span></span> for non-array <code>T</code>.
</p><p>Array allocation may supply unspecified overhead, which may vary from one call to new to the next. The pointer returned by the new-expression will be offset by that value from the pointer returned by the allocation function. Many implementations use the array overhead to store the number of objects in the array which is used by the <a href="delete.html" title="cpp/language/delete"><span class="t-c"><span class="mw-geshi cpp source-cpp">delete<span class="br0">&#91;</span><span class="br0">&#93;</span></span></span></a> expression to call the correct number of destructors. In addition, if the new-expression is used to allocate an array of <span class="t-c"><span class="mw-geshi cpp source-cpp"><span class="kw4">char</span></span></span> or an array <span class="t-c"><span class="mw-geshi cpp source-cpp"><span class="kw4">unsigned</span> <span class="kw4">char</span></span></span>, it may request additional memory from the allocation function if necessary to guarantee correct alignment of objects of all types no larger than the requested array size, if one is later placed into the allocated array.

<p>New expressions are allowed to elide or combine allocations made through replaceable allocation functions. In case of elision, the storage may be provided by the compiler without making the call to an allocation function (this also permits optimizing out unused new-expression).

If no deallocation function is found, memory is not deallocated.

<p>The objects created by new expressions (objects with dynamic storage duration) persist until the pointer returned by the new expression is used in a matching <a href="delete.html" title="cpp/language/delete">delete-expression</a>. If the original value of pointer is lost, the object becomes unreachable and cannot be deallocated: a <i>memory leak</i> occurs.
</p><p>This may happen if the pointer is assigned to:
</p>
<div dir="ltr" class="mw-geshi" style="text-align: left;"><div class="cpp source-cpp"><pre class="de1"><span class="kw4">int</span><span class="sy2">*</span> p <span class="sy1">=</span> new <span class="kw4">int</span><span class="br0">&#40;</span><span class="nu0">7</span><span class="br0">&#41;</span><span class="sy4">;</span> <span class="co1">// dynamically allocated int with value 7</span>

<p>To simplify management of dynamically-allocated objects, the result of a new-expression is often stored in a <i><a href="../memory.html#Smart_pointers" title="cpp/memory">smart pointer</a></i>: <span class="t-rev-inl t-until-cxx17"><span><span class="t-lc">std::auto_ptr</span> </span> <span><span class="t-mark-rev t-until-cxx17">(until C++17)</span></span></span><span class="t-rev-inl t-since-cxx11"><span><span class="t-lc">std::unique_ptr</span>, or <span class="t-lc">std::shared_ptr</span></span> <span><span class="t-mark-rev t-since-cxx11">(since C++11)</span></span></span>. These pointers guarantee that the delete expression is executed in the situations shown above.
