rev 6239 : 8039805: Fix the signature of the global new/delete operators in allocation.cpp

*** 684,725 **** #ifndef PRODUCT // The global operator new should never be called since it will usually indicate // a memory leak. Use CHeapObj as the base class of such objects to make it explicit // that they're allocated on the C heap. // Commented out in product version to avoid conflicts with third-party C++ native code. ! // On certain platforms, such as Mac OS X (Darwin), in debug version, new is being called ! // from jdk source and causing data corruption. Such as ! // Java_sun_security_ec_ECKeyPairGenerator_generateECKeyPair ! // define ALLOW_OPERATOR_NEW_USAGE for platform on which global operator new allowed. // #ifndef ALLOW_OPERATOR_NEW_USAGE ! void* operator new(size_t size) throw() { ! assert(false, "Should not call global operator new"); return 0; } ! void* operator new [](size_t size) throw() { ! assert(false, "Should not call global operator new[]"); return 0; } void* operator new(size_t size, const std::nothrow_t& nothrow_constant) throw() { ! assert(false, "Should not call global operator new"); return 0; } void* operator new [](size_t size, std::nothrow_t& nothrow_constant) throw() { ! assert(false, "Should not call global operator new[]"); return 0; } ! void operator delete(void* p) { ! assert(false, "Should not call global delete"); } ! void operator delete [](void* p) { ! assert(false, "Should not call global delete []"); } #endif // ALLOW_OPERATOR_NEW_USAGE void AllocatedObj::print() const { print_on(tty); } void AllocatedObj::print_value() const { print_value_on(tty); } --- 684,747 ---- #ifndef PRODUCT // The global operator new should never be called since it will usually indicate // a memory leak.

While some more strict compilers like AIX xlC or HP aCC reject to ! // override the default throwing new operator with a user operator with an empty throw() ! // clause, the MS Visual C++ compiler warns for every non-empty throw clause like ! // throw(std::bad_alloc) that it will ignore the exception specification.
