I've got two questions concerning arrays:

<1>
What's the difference between

char anArray[100];

and

char *anArray;
anArray = new (char)[100];

<2>
How can I pass an array with undefined size to a procedure, and get the
procedure to set the array size (C++)??

something like this (in pseudo code):

proc aProc(array[]){
  array.size = 100;
}

int main(){
  int anArray[];
  aProc(anArray[]);
  ...
}

Thanks!
