I don't have the C++ standard here, but it looks like the natural 
thing.

Logic because k is Clase2 and part of Clase1.

Yes, what about it? what does it change? I think it doesn't have to 
change anything. Again I don't have the standard but it looks the 
natural thing because k is just a member of Clase1, nothing more.

Never trust in BC++ it have a lot of non-portable extentions and 
normally Borland doesn't put it clear.

Yes and that's the point, I think you need:

class Clase1 
{ 
.....
 Clase2 *k;
}

And inside the Clase1 constructor:

k=new Clase2(....anything you want...);

Instead of expecting some automatic behavior.
