Thread: Reusing a string pointer question

Hi,

Would reusing a string pointer in the following way valid? I mean would the memory allocated for the constant string "some string" freed appropriately when the program quits?

Code:

void func()
{
    WCHAR* pszString = L"some string";
    pszString = L"some other string";
}

int main(...)
{
...
    func();
...
}

Also, since the constant string "some string" won't get stored in heap memory, when does it go out of scope? only when main quits?

Thanks!
