这里有人用过c++的“placement new”吗?如果有,为什么?在我看来,它只在内存映射硬件上有用。

The one place I've run across it is in containers which allocate a contiguous buffer and then fill it with objects as required. As mentioned, std::vector might do this, and I know some versions of MFC CArray and/or CList did this (because that's where I first ran across it). The buffer over-allocation method is a very useful optimization, and placement new is pretty much the only way to construct objects in that scenario. It is also used sometimes to construct objects in memory blocks allocated outside of your direct code.

我在类似的情况下使用过它,尽管它不经常出现。不过,它是c++工具箱中的一个有用工具。

它被std::vector<>使用,因为std::vector<>通常分配比vector<>中的对象更多的内存。

它可能在使用共享内存时很方便,在其他用途中…例如:http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_51_0/doc/html/interprocess/synchronization_mechanisms.html#interprocess.synchronization_mechanisms.conditions.conditions_anonymous_example

我使用它来构造通过alloca()分配到堆栈上的对象。

无耻的宣传:我在这里写过博客。

我用它来存储带有内存映射文件的对象。 具体的例子是一个图像数据库,它处理大量的大图像(超过内存容量)。
