SIGSEGV in new/malloc

[Eljay Love-Jensen]

Hi Karthik,

Sorry, I could not get this to crash...
int main()
{
     typedef unsigned char BYTE;
     int nNewSize = 1;

     void** m_pData = (void**) new BYTE[nNewSize * sizeof(BYTE*)];
}

What compiler flags are you using?

What OS are you using?

Does your program do anything more than the above, or is this the smallest 
program that reproduces the problem for you?

You could do this, by the way...
void** m_pData = new void*;
...cuts out some array voodoo magic sizing monkey business.  But that 
shouldn't have any impact on your problem.  Just a coding style suggestion.
