Hi Jeff,
and what about TClonesArray ? Consider such example without new/delete
overhead. You can use TClonesArray as a buffer for your histograms.
{
TClonesArray a("TH1F", 1000);
Char_t buf[10];
while(1) {
// Create some histograms
for(Int_t i=0; i<10000; i++)
{
sprintf(buf,"H%d", i);
new(a[i]) TH1F(buf, buf, 10, 0., 1.);
}
//Play whit histos
//Delete them
a.Delete();
}
}
Regards,
Jarek
