template<class U,class T>
T* make_new( U& value );

An object or value of type T*

Allocates a new object or value of type T from the given value using the copy constructor

vector<int> numbers;
...
// makes a vector of *int from numbers (same type)
vector<int*> v1 = map( numbers, make_new<int> );
 
// makes a vector of *double from numbers (different type)
vector<double*> v1 = map( numbers, make_new<int,double> );
