I've always hated the fact that C++ has 2 memory models new/delete and malloc/free and I've never liked new/delete because it doesn't allow anything like realloc - why can't I reallocate an array of char or wchar_t??
Try using malloc on something that contains a type with a constructor inside and you'll see. The constructor will not be called :)
malloc and friends are bad heritage due to C compatibility. I stay away from them.
