I am experiencing a problem with overloading the 
new operator when allocating an array of classes.

I do the following and my overloaded new operator is
called as expected:

ptr = new ClassThatOverloadsNew;

But when I do this:

ptr = new ClassThatOverloadsNew[5];

The default new operator is called.

What needs to be done to get an overloaded new operator to be called
when allocating an array of data types?  Does C++ even allow this 
to be done?  I have checked several C++ manuals and none explicitely 
state that this can be done (and none say that it cannot be done!).
I assumed that the overloaded new operator would be called with the
number of bytes (the first parameter) being set to:

sizeof(class) * arrayCount

But this is not the case.  Does anybody know how to solve this problem?
I'm sure it is supported and is simple to do, I just have not found the
right documentation on how to do it.  My assumptions have been wrong so
far, so I need some help.

Thanks in advance,
