Dynamically create an array of object pointers

Question

I have a class called "poly". I want to dynamically create an array of pointers to poly objects. The variable "totalPolynomials" holds the number of poly objects.

Here is my code to declare the array:

poly **polyPtr;                         
polyPtr = new poly *[totalPolynomials];

I successfully create poly objects, but don't know how to store their pointers in the array one after another...

Answer 1

If you are creating them and then want to store them, you can do something like

poly ** polyPtr;
polyPtr = new poly* [totalPolynomials];

for(int i = 0; i<totalPolynomials; ++i)
{
    polyPtr[i] = new poly(arguments);
}
