What I would do is keep a list of allocated objects, all of which
descend from a common base class (make the list a list of that base
class). Give that base class a virtual destructor, and then just call
delete on each object in the list when finished. Of course this
assumes that no object frees another object, since they will be freed
later in the list (or might have already been freed earlier). You
might also look into garbage collection (e.g., reference counting w/
smart pointers) as a way to manage memory.
