Re: Estor.

Changing the topic slightly, could I ask why you have used the static keyword in the following line...

static node retVal;

...and in the other code snipet...

static node* retVal = new node;

I've never really found a use for the static keyword and just wondered why you have used it in the way you have.

I (and others) have told you several times already: you must track the information ("which thing is pointed to") separately by yourself.

Ouch.... sorry that was copy/paste bug [smile] in second code there shold not be static keyword

this
static node* retVal = new node;

shold be
node* retVal = new node;

Thanks for pointing that out, Anri
