You can do either - throw an exception object or throw a pointer.

In the latter case you have to catch a pointer and also remember to 
delete it somewhere. Extra work. And an extra allocation.

So most people prefer the first version.

No. You can just do

MyClass   myObj;

and be done with it. No need for pointers here.
