dynamic objects in a <list>

[strobe9]

Someone clear this up for me...
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

list<Order> lst_Orders;

typedef list<Order *>::iterator it;

Order *ptrOrder1 = new Order;
Order *ptrOrder2 = new Order;
Order *ptrOrder3 = new Order;

lst_Orders.push_back(ptrOrder1);
lst_Orders.push_back(ptrOrder2);
lst_Orders.push_back(ptrOrder3);

for ( it = lst_Orders.begin(); it != lst_Orders.end(); it++ )
{
delete *it; // not sure
lst_Orders.remove(it); // not sure
}


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is this correct ?

try to use code tags in future mate

typedef std::list<Order*> lst_orders; // this is a typedef, not an instance
typedef lst_orders::iterator lst_it; // ditto

lst_orders theList; // instantiate the list
lst_it theIterator; // instantiate the iterator

Order *ptrOrder1 = new Order;
Order *ptrOrder2 = new Order;
Order *ptrOrder3 = new Order;

theList.push_back(ptrOrder1); // add to the list
theList.push_back(ptrOrder2);
theList.push_back(ptrOrder3);

for ( theIterator = theList.begin(); theIterator != theList.end(); ++theIterator ) // make the sure the iterator is incremented first, coz theList.begin() isn't an item in the list
{
   delete *theIterator;
   theList.remove(theIterator);
}

hope this helps
