    Question Object pointers and Templates

    Hi Just a quick question:

    How do i use a pointer on such an object instantiation like so:

    Code:
    Lattice<Juxtacrine> l(width,height);
    I want to be able to do the following sort of thing:

    Code:
    Lattice<Juxtacrine> *l(width,height) = new Lattice<Juxtacrine>;
    Is this possible? I need to be able to delete and re-create this object eg delete l; and the only way i can think of doing this is via pointers? am i correct?

    Regards,

    Anyway, here's how it's done:
    Code:
     
    Lattice<Juxtacrine>* l = new Lattice<Juxtacrine>(width,height);
