True, still, that's a leak that will be cleaned up by the OS, not that serious on modern OSes, and not as big of an issue since it's not in a function called often. (main() can't be called in C++)
That's still a bit shady practice to not do a cleanup. +1

OP: you should always remember that if you use new/new[] - you need to use delete/delete[] to free the memory. Unless, of course, you use smart pointers, in which case the smart pointer will use delete for you, when the time comes.

Did no one see my post, or see how the OP's code has a memory leak in it? When you use dynamic memory allocation(using the new operator), there needs to be a delete statement somewhere to delete the memory you allocated with the new operator. If you don't, you will end up with a memory leak which is a serious issue.

I gotcha buddy, I put it in my updated code and your point is earned =)
