Hi, I want to well define an array of vectors. The vectors contain objects of the type shared_ptr. To be more precise, I have something like this


To add a shared_ptr to, say, ArrayOfVectorsOfFooPtr[0], I simply do


so the program continues and I am actually able of using it, however, when I delete the array, I always get memory leaks and do know how to bypass this issue. The code I use for deleting it is


Is there anything wrong here? Or maybe the problem is somewhere else? :s

This statement does not create an array of anything. It creates a single vector with size = 6.

Or, did your program statement actually look like the following:

Now, this allocates storage for an array of six vector<FooPtr> objects. Is that what you had? Otherwise, I have to say that other statements in your post don't make much sense to me. (And in fact if that really is your statement and if you used any index value other than zero, the code is invalid.)


Now assuming that the real program statement actually created an array, as indicated...

As far as memory leaks, I don't think anything that you showed will cause memory leaks. (At least not as reported by valgrind from a program compiled with GNU g++).

Indeed.



How about making a minimal program that illustrates the leak and show it to us. Be sure to paste the entire exact program into your post.

Tell us what compiler you are using and how you are detecting the memory leaks.

Thanks for your answer. Indeed, I just mistyped my code (this is not the actual code but an illustrative simplification of it). I meant


Later (it is 1 am here) I will provide a more precise piece of the actual code. Thank again for your answer.
