Multidimentional Array Dynamic Allocation

Is it possible to dynamicaly allocate space for a multidimentional array.

Something like:

Code:

int* var = new int* [2][2];

or something like that?

not quite, here's an example

Code:

	int ** ptr = new int * [2];
	for (int i = 0; i < 3; i++)
		ptr[i] = new int [2];

Thanks, that was really helpful, I suspected i would have to have pointer point to a pointer point to a memory address, but I though maybe there was an easier way :-\


Thanks a lot.

Or a vector of vectors?

There is, if all your minor dimensions are constant.

For example
int (*var)[2] = new int[6][2];
