use of new and delete

[Richard Bell]

I'm using C++ for my Palm OS application and was wondering if using new and
delete for creating/destroying pointers to classes is the right approach.  I
would rather create a handle and lock unlock it when I access the class, are
there any issues with this I should be aware of?  I'm thinking that the
following code would work:

MemHandle h;
MyClass *pClass;

h=MemHandleNew(sizeof(MyClass));
if (h)
    {
    pClass = (MyClass*) MemHandleLock(h);
    pClass->MyClass();  // call the constructor
    MemHandleUnlock(h);
    }

...
if (h)
    {
    pClass = (MyClass*) MemHandleLock(h);
    pClass->~MyClass();  // call the destructor
    MemHandleUnlock(h);
    MemHandleFree(h);
    }
