Is there a memory management plugin for C/C++ (though that would defeat the purpose)?
Ok, first a nit-pick...I wish people wouldn't write "C slash C++". That implies that they are the same language, and they're really not.
It *used* to be the case that you could effectively consider C++ a proper superset of C, but with the latest rev of the C standard, the languages have diverged enough that it makes sense to quit referring to them as though they were the same.
Having said that... Memory management in C++ is made much simpler by using smart pointers... Google sometime for "C++ smart pointer" or just "auto_ptr" and read some of the stuff that's out there...
Also, while you don't hear it discussed much, it is possible to use garbage collection in C++ code. Herb Schildt's book "The Art of C++" contains a description of a basic C++ garbage collection implementation, for example. Again, google should turn up plenty of additional info.
And anyway, managed languages are t3h sux0r. :-)
TTYL,

Thank God we have the 2nd Amendment to tell our elected representatives that enough is enough.
It's time to put "... from my cold, dead hands" back where it belongs.
