Default Constructor

Hello,
in User Guide p.267, chapter The Default Constructor:

[quote]Be sure that you don’t allocate any space for embedded pointer objects in the default constructor. This space will be lost …
[/quote]

but in $ROOTSYS/test/Event.cxx:

fHighPt = new TRefArray; fMuons = new TRefArray;
or in $ROOTSYS/test/Hello.cxx:

fList = new TList();
why ?

Thanks, Jan
