Change in pointers but retain change after function

Because you are passing a copy of pointer. To change the pointer you need something like this:
void foo(int **ptr) //pointer to pointer
{
*ptr = new int[10]; //just for example, use RAII in a real world
}
or
void bar(int *& ptr) //reference to pointer (a bit confusing look)
{
ptr = new int[10];
}
void foo(int **ptr) //pointer to pointer
{
*ptr = new int[10]; //just for example, use RAII in a real world
}
or
void bar(int *& ptr) //reference to pointer (a bit confusing look)
{
ptr = new int[10];
}
