Subject: How to override new[] in ANSI C++



In Stroustrop's C++ second Edition, he describes the introduction

of the capability to override the new[] operator.  In the ANSI C++

description this doesn't exist, so I assume that is why I can't
seem
to do


    static void * new[](size_t Size);


with my compiler (Sparkworks on SUNOS and on SOLARIS).



Is there any way with ANSI C++ to effectively override the new
operator
for arrays.  (We are doing some home-grown persistent
storage, and need
to trap all calls to new and new[], but we
don't think it advisable to
override the global new operator).



Thanks,

Larry
