This is exceedingly bad design. Any good C++ programmer will write:
std::auto_ptr<C_BAR> bar(new C_Bar());
...or something like it. It's exception- and leak-proof.
In one of my projects we had a 'no naked new' rule. So the result of EACH 'new' must be wrapped in a smart pointer (there were only a few carefully audited places where this policy was relaxed). Worked wonders.
