Maybe someone can give me some other methods that might be dynamic instead of static for basic class creation.

#define MAX_OBJECTS 1000

class Foo {
public:
    Foo() {
        for(int i = 0;i < MAX_OBJECTS;i++)
            bars[i] = NULL;
    }
    ~Foo() {
         for(int i = 0;i < MAX_OBJECTS;i++) {
             if(bars[i])
                 delete bars[i]
         }
    }
    Bar *bars[MAX_OBJECTS];
    void create_bar() {
    bars[num_bars] = new Bar;
    num_bars++;
    }
private:
    int num_bars;
};

class Bar {
    int whatever;
};

I would rather have limitless objects then limited objects. [edited by - chbfiv on October 6, 2003 12:45:47 PM] [edited by - chbfiv on October 6, 2003 12:46:58 PM]

Dynamically allocate them instead. When you want to use more elements than exist in your previous array (array A), create a new array (array B), with slightly larger size, copy the contents of A into B, delete A, and replace A with B.

The following is valid syntax:

Bar * bars;
bars = new Bar[someintegervariable];
// (do whatever)
delete [] bars;

You could also implement a pattern such as a linked list, where each element in the list is like a link of a chain, with knowledge of the next element in addition to its own data. You can add or remove links from the chain whenever you want.

I should have come up with that; I just dont use them much, yet=) thanks both of you.
