Regards,


The Return operator "can't return any arrays, class objects, variables of compound structure type"; however, it can return an object pointer.
 

Hello Thirteen,

Is this correct ?

Should I have to delete the object or is it automatic?

Once new is used you have to delete it by delete. Besides, it seem quite ok.
