Hi, Now that we have transitioned to C++, do we still need to use placebo like XNEW and XNEWVEC in GCC source code proper? (I am not talking about uses in liberty.)
Note that XNEW in particular does not work for types with non-default constructors. We introduced these macros so that they take care of casts that were required for going from void* to T*. A new-expression automatically gives a typed pointer. -- Gaby
