Dynamic arrays possible?

[ApJ]

This is a user of borland C++ builder 5 begging
Is it possible to make an new array, with dynamic size, during runtime?

e.g:
void MyFunction(int NumOfelements)
{
int MyArray[NumOfElements];
}

This don't work, error msg:"E2313 Constant expression required".

As far as I know Builder say it isn't possible, but do anybody know a work-around?

I can't use #define, need somthing I can change during Runtime (and I can't make it work with #define either).

oh... a tiny example would be nice, I'm not 100% hardcore at this stuff

It's not possible with C/C++ at all the way it is written. Look at C++ STL vector, deque, list. They will provide you with the dynamic capability that you are looking for and then some (e.g. the ability to add/delete elements at either end of the list). James P. Cottingham

you can also do:

int* myArray;

myArray = new int[arraySize];
...

delete[] myArray;

First, sorry about the delay (my only HD broke down).

1000 x thanks, that was exactly what I needed.
