Hi,

I have the following code(it may have syntax error), but ignore. Just
the idea. The question is:
1. Does customTagsEle get destroyed when func1() exit? It seems not.
But why not? local variable should be destroyed when it do out of
scope.
2.When does m_map get destroyed? Is it when CMyClass object get
destroyed?
3. When does the class A's object get destroyed?

Class A
{
....
}

class CMyClass
{
private:
std::map<std::string, boost::shared_ptr<A> > m_map;
public:
func1();
}


CMyClass::func1()
{
std::pair< std::string, boost::shared_ptr<A> > customTagsEle;
customTagsEle = std::make_pair( std::string((LPCTSTR)m_name),
boost::shared_ptr<A>( new A ) );
m_map.push_back( customTagsEle);
}

Yes.

How do you come to the conclusion that it doesn't?

Yes.

Please post a complete, compilable program if you want to get a
accurate answer.

customTagsEle does get destroyed. However, m_map contains a copy of it.

Yes.

On m_map destruction.

I'd like to point out that this line is breaks the basic exception
safety guarantee. The compiler is free to choose the following
order of "function calls":
1. new A
2. construct std::string
3. construct boost::shared_ptr<.>
4. std::make_pair(.,.)
If the construction of std::string throws, the A object is leaked.

Vladimir Marko
