gdi+ question

[vipin aravind]

The  following   code   snippet  is   failing  when  I use
local   variable   for  Pen   and  Graphics   instead  of
dynamically allocating   them. Can  someone  help me  out with a reason?



   StartDoc(dlg.hDC, &di); 
   StartPage(dlg.hDC); 
   GdiplusStartup(&gdiplusToken, &gdiplusStartupInput, NULL);
   Pen      *pen = new Pen(Color(255, 0, 0, 255));
   Graphics *graphics = new Graphics(dlg.hDC);
   graphics->DrawLine(pen, 0, 0, 800, 200);
   delete pen;
   delete graphics;
