Is it possible to manually call the constructor of a class in C++?
c++
Solution
It sounds like you want to call the constructor an a piece of memory created by `malloc`. This is possible and is called placement new
void* pMemory = malloc(sizeof(C));
C* pValue = new (pMemory) C();
Problem
The most common way of creating an object of a class is by using the `new` keyword. It also calls the constructor. But if we used the `malloc` function to create the object, the constructor doesn't get called. Is it still possible to manually call the constructor after creating the object using `malloc`?
