hi,

I read in the user guide v0.7.2, chapter 11 the default
constructor of a ROOT I/O class (deriving from TObject)
should not allocate any memory
(see the remark for T49Event class !)

But when I read the Event class default constructor, I see memory allocation
but for a static pointer to a TClonesArray !

Why is it possible, what is the purpose in using static pointers ?

Regards .

				Sylvie
