Thread: Destructor crash

Hey guys,

I have been learning c++ while working with memory management i seem to have gotten stuck,
There are 2 classes Stack and Queue the stack works on the LIFO principle (last in first out) and the queue the opposite FIFO (first in first out).

Now the program runs fine however when the queue destructor gets called the program crashes trying to free the memory,
I cant figure out why this happens.

Any help is would be appreciated!

Code:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

class CStack
{
private:
	char *bottom_;
	char *top_;
	int size_;
public:
	CStack(int n =20){
		bottom_ = new char[n];
		top_ = bottom_;
		size_ = n;
	}
	void push(char c){
		if (num_items() >= size_)
		{
			size_ += 1;
			realloc(bottom_, size_);
		}
		*top_ = c;
		top_++;
	}
	int num_items() {
		return (top_ - bottom_ );
	}
	char pop(){
		top_--;
		return *top_;
	}
	int full() {
		return (num_items() >= size_);
	}
	int empty() {
		return (num_items() <= 0);
	}

	void print(){
		cout << "Stack currently holds " << num_items() << " items: " ;
		for (char *element=bottom_; element<top_; element++) {
			cout << " " << *element;
		}
		cout << "\n";
	}

	~CStack(){
