<p>What does it mean to <code>delete this</code> pointer from a member function?</p>

<p>According to my understanding:
    <code>new</code> returns <code>this</code> pointer, which we pass to <code>delete</code>, which in turn calls the destructor before freeing memory. So <code>delete this</code> should do the same thing.</p>

<p>My doubt is whether the destructor will be called or not?</p>
