▪Avoid allocating buffers with new/malloc. Buffers are perfectly modeled with std::vector

▪Prefer the stack for temp buffers, if the size is <=500-1000 bytes

char* temparray = (char*)malloc(10); 

memset(temparray, 0, 10); //no need for memset!!! 

strcpy(temparray, value.c_str()); //leak!!! 

std::vector<char> temparray(10);

 strcpy(&temparray[0], value.c_str());

 char temparray[10]; 

strcpy(temparray, value.c_str());
