C / C++ / MFC

1. Create the array on the heap with int a[]=new int[2]; Remember the array has to be deleted when no longer necessary with delete [] a;
   
2. Use some high-level class like std::vector<int>.

void f( int *a)
{
   a= new int [2];
   // process with a;

   return;
}

void main()
{
   int *a;
   f(a);

   // use a as you need to

   // remember to free the memory for a
   delete a;
}

void f(int** a)
{
  *a = new int[2];
}

void main()
{
  int* a = 0;
  f(&a);
  delete [] a;
}

int* f()
{
  int* a = new int[2];
  a[0] = 1;
  a[1] = 2;
 
  return a;
}
 
void main()
{
  int* a = f();
  delete [] a;
}

CImageList m_imgIcon;
//to support 256 colors	icons
m_imgIcon.Create(32,32,ILC_COLORDDB |ILC_MASK,0,10);
		
CBitmap bm;
bm.LoadBitmap(IDB_ICON);
m_imgIcon.Add(&bm,RGB(255,0,255));

// Use ExtractIcon to extract ICON
HICON hIcon;
hIcon = m_imgIcon.ExtractIcon(nImg);
