How to create objects dynamically

[chaitannya]

I have created a class CMyGraph, which plots points of a graph on screen. The code i am using right now is as follows.

CMyGraph* plotPoint1 = new CMyGraph();
plotPoint1->SetData(0, 64);

But if i have to plot multiple points i do it hardcoded like.. ..

CMyGraph* plotPoint1 = new CMyGraph();
plotPoint1->SetData(0, 64);
CMyGraph* plotPoint2 = new CMyGraph();
plotPoint2->SetData(0, 64);
CMyGraph* plotPoint3 = new CMyGraph();
plotPoint3->SetData(0, 64);

I intent to do this dynamically , i.e. the values will come from the database. And those many points will be plotted. In short those many objects will be created. I am a newbie .. can anyone suggest a solution for that

You can create an array of objects that is pointed by a pointer like...

CMyGraph* ptr = new CMyGraph[num];
//where num = the number of objects you want to create at run time.

then is a for loop take the points from the user at run time using the setdata function..

Can't your write your CMyGraph class so that it can plot multiple points?

But if i have to plot multiple points i do it hardcoded like.. ..

CMyGraph* plotPoint1 = new CMyGraph();
plotPoint1->SetData(0, 64);
plotPoint1->SetData(0, 64);
plotPoint1->SetData(0, 64);
