Probably because the memory is still initialized to zero,
when it is used for the first time.
Try this:
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <assert.h>
struct A
{
A() {}
void* operator new(size_t s)
{
void* ptr = malloc(s);
memset(ptr, 0xFF, s);
return ptr;
}
void operator delete(void* ptr) { free(ptr); }
int value;
};
int main()
{
A* a = new A;
assert(a->value == -1); /* Use of uninitialized value */
delete a;
}
