RE: why my overloaded operate new is called?

["Fan Xiaohua-A18426" <a18426@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi, Eljay,

Thanks for your quick response!
But why my overloaded placement new  "void* operator new(size_t size, int* memHdr)" is not called?

Thanks&Regards,

Tina

Hi Fan,

Your new operator is a function.

You are linking against your function.

Hence, you are utilizing your function, rather than the one that would otherwise be used.

No.

HTH,

Hello, all
 
Sorry for disturbing all of you, I'm not sure whether I have sent my question to a right mail list.
 
I have one c++ file named utilnew.cc:
 
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

// ........overload new.delete...
void* operator new(size_t size)
{
    cout << "enter my new1\n";

    return malloc(size);
}

void operator delete(void* memoryPtr)
{
    cout << "enter mydelete1\n";
    free(memoryPtr);
}

void* operator new(size_t size, int* memHdr) {
    cout << "into my  new2\n";
    return malloc(size);
}

void operator delete(void* memoryPtr, int*) {

    printf("enter mydelete2\n");

}
and one header file utilnew.h
 
void* operator new(size_t size);
void operator delete(void* memoryPtr);
void* operator new(size_t size, int* memHdr); void operator delete(void* memoryPtr, int*); now I create a test c++ file named mymain.cc for test #include <iostream>



using namespace std;

int main()
{
    int *temp = new int(1);
    int *p = new(temp)int;
    cout << "temp is :" << temp <<"\n";
    cout << "p is :" << p << "\n";
    delete temp;
  
    return 0;
}
I compile them:
g++  -o mymain mymain.cc utilnew.cc
 
Then run mymain
 
I get the following result:
enter my new1
temp is :0x9489008
p is :0x9489008
enter mydelete1

My question is:
why my first overloaded operator new is called since #include "utilnew.h" is not added in mymain.cc? Is this related with certain compile option?
