Dynamic memory

[jaden5165]

pec_vlog_file = new char[strlen(argv[i+1])+1];

if strlen(argv[i+1])+1 = 50
This code give pec_vlog_file a dynamic memory which is in char type with [50] of free space.Am i right?but what is this for?why we need to assign dynamic memory and do those strlen to get the size?

Yes.

but what is this for?why we need to assign dynamic memory and do those strlen to get the size?

Presumably, because the size of the memory needed for pec_vlog_file is not known at compile time, because it's based on the length of the string argv. If argv were a different size, then a different amount of memory would be needed for pec_vlog_file.
