I'd say prefer the safest, highest-level of abstraction that you can get away with. Which would generally mean std::vector over new/malloc.
- AlexeyBrin 9y agoI have no problem with the use of std::vector (in 90% of cases it is all you need), my problem is with the new trend of shunning any use of new/delete or naked pointers in modern C++.
- jononor 9y agoSure, dogma is not very useful. But when people ask "what should I use" saying "well, there are valid cases for everything" (like someone else in the thread basically did) does not help much either.
