Answer 1

typedef struct _A
{
  int *arr;
  int arrCount;
} A;

void Construct_A(A *a, int arraySize)
{
  a->arrCount = arraySize;
  a->arr = (int*)malloc(sizeof(int)*arraySize);
}

void Destruct_A(A *a)
{
  free(a->arr);
  a->arr = 0;
}

typedef struct _B
{
  A *a;
} B;

void Construct_B(B *b, int arraySize_A)
{
  b->a = (A*)malloc(sizeof(A));
  Construct_A(b->a);
}

void Destruct_B(B *b)
{
  Destruct_A(b->a);
  free(b->a);
  b->a = 0;
}

void main()
{
  B b;
  Construct_B(&b, 10);

  // Use b and b->a

  Destruct_B(&b);
}
