HI<br />
<br />
Why would a function returning B&amp; cause a memory leak? B,A are two C++ classes.<br />
<br />
Eg<br />
<br />
B&amp; A::myfunction(){ ....}<br />
<br />
thanks

return type

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.
