C++ lists & arrays (solved)

edited January 2008 in Help / Advice Forum
So, long story short, I would like to copy a linked list to an array, but I'm not sure how to make arrays of variable size at run time. For example, 
void ToArray( const int size )
{
        // doesn't work
	int newArray[size];

        ...
}

Any ideas?

    int* p_int = new int[size];

    Remember to free it when you're done.

    Remember to use 'delete [] thing', not 'delete thing'. Using the wrong delete operator is a fun source of memory leaks.
