CString to std::string
in [MFC]

From: Ajay Kalra on 15 Feb 2006 13:03 Are you using string or tstring. Since your compiler settings are UNICODE, you will need to have a wide string to do this conversion. There are other macros such as T2A which will convert it to an ascii string. --------- Ajay Kalra ajaykalra(a)yahoo.com

From: Derek on 15 Feb 2006 13:06 There is no problem with conversion of wide CString with LPCTSTR, that part works...

Can you show the code which is causing this error? --------- Ajay Kalra ajaykalra(a)yahoo.com |
