ScreenOutputArea = new OutputArea(*newOutputArea);
}
C++ question.

I have a class (Screen) with an internal member of type OutputArea* which is called ScreenOutputArea. To set this internal member I have a method which looks something like this.
That code looks fine except that it could result in a memory leak if ScreenOutputArea is not deleted prior to this call.
Instead of "somewhere around this class" use your debugger to find out exactly where the crash is occuring.

Syntactically everything looks ok.
Stating the obvious, make sure newOutputArea is not 0.
Step through the code as see where it bombs.

Sorry guys I havent done much debugging in the past (well in fact I havent done any other than the usual MessageBox experiments) so do you think you might be able to help me out?
I am stepping through the program and when I get to a ZeroMemory function call, the compiler asks me to provide MEMSET.ASM?
However I cant locate this file anywhere on my computer?
Any ideas?
Thanks.
