This is the problem, you have to understand why it doesn't work ;) I
attach an example of code that don't run as expected. The explanation is
the objects stored in the array are accessed like based object and not
as the real object type. This break everything. I guess you are in the
same trouble.

Maybe because it makes the work you didn't when allocating you're array ?

No, It couldn't, you seen it :) In the boost project, it was added
boost::array<> template, to provide a safe-type c-array style.
It is not a programming style, it is about well programming in C++.
Actually, it is considered harmfull to use widely the new operator, and
it is worse to use new [] operator.
