malloc()

I know how to use new to dynamically allocate memory, but how can we use malloc() wich I think it's a C function?

Can you give me an example.Thanks...

Here is one example of malloc() implementation.

Code:

---

const int bufSize = 100;
TCHAR *pDataBuf = NULL;

pDataBuf = reinterpret_cast<TCHAR *>(malloc(bufSize + 1));
pDataBuf[bufSize] = '\0';
...
free(pDataBuf);

Here is a reference website with information on malloc().

So free is like delete?

it frees the dynamically allocated memory,yeah,like delete does..
actually new calls malloc and delete calls free.
