[comp.lang.c++] g++ and overloading the new operator

jlv@ebt-inc.uucp (Jeffrey L. Vogel) (12/12/90)

Does g++ support overloading of the new operator??

I have tried the following:

void * operator new(long size, my_data_type buf)
{
   ...
   return buf;
}


{
   int *a;
   my_data_type b;
   ...
   a = new (b) int;
}


The result is a parse error before "new".
