Since we're not allowed to use structs in this project I'm working on right now, I have to use pointers.  To be precise, the way it works out I need to use pointers to pointers to pointers to data.  o_O

My brain hurts.

Be sure to tell us how that works out for you.

Pointers make things easier since if you delete one object you can just change where the pointer points to.

Yeah, I have more control, but it's brain racking sometimes when I have to manage pointers that point to all sorts of places, like implementing a linked list.  It's a lot easier in Java since I don't have to take care of that. :P
