     Compiler error C2464
 
     'identifier' : cannot use 'new' to allocate a reference
 
     The specified reference identifier was allocated with the new
     operator.
 
     Since references are not memory objects, the new operator cannot
     return a pointer to them.
 
     Use the standard variable declaration syntax to declare a
     reference.
 
     The following is an example of this error:
 
          void main()
          {
              new ( int& ir );   // error
          }
