The "new" operator is not behaving as expected in my code. I am using TI Compiler v5.2.5 on CCSv6.1.2 in Linux(Ubuntu x64 14.04) with a Tiva TM4C123GH6PM over an Olimex XDS100v2 emulator.
This code works perfectly fine on the tiva:
class TestClass
{
public:
TestClass() {
value = 5;
};
int value;
private:
};
int main(void) {
TestClass tc;
int test = tc.value;
return 0;
}
"value" is set to 5.
However changing it to use a pointer to the "TestClass" causes the constructor to not be called and "value" is never initialized.
class TestClass
{
public:
TestClass() {
value = 5;
};
int value;
private:
};
TestClass *tc;
int main(void) {
tc = new TestClass;
int test = tc->value;
return 0;
}
Here "value" is a random number, presumable the existing value at the location it references in memory.
