Also either call
memset(m_FileName,0,(strlen(FileName)+1));
after the new,

or call
m_FileName[strlen(FileName)] = '/0';

after strcpy.

Nope. strcpy will copy the terminating zero so you don't need to do it yourself.

But still, your suggestion is good: memory leaks are a bad programming practice

I get a error at the delete keyword ,
Damage After normal Block 0x00000034

this type of error occur when the pointer of your array has been corrupted (there are some bytes in front of your data that contains information about your array, such as the size and things like that, and these bytes are being overwritten).

In my class the code is as


char *m_FileName;
m_FileName=new char[strlen(FileName)];
strcpy(m_FileName,FileName);

are you calling this code in Constructor or some where else... You have delete memory every time you allocate it.. it seems you allocating memory many times but deallocating only one time, at time of destruction.

Good point using the example code I gave earlier the fix would be to add this to the MyClass class
