Hello-<br />
<br />
I have a function that takes an 'unsigned char *' as a value. &nbsp;This is data that I'm passing the functin to be worked on. &nbsp;Unfortunetly prior to using the function I only have this data stored as a string (or char *). &nbsp;<br />
<br />
Is there a simple way to convert the strgin to an 'unsigned char *'? &nbsp;Thanks.<br />

convert string to unsigned char *

C++ is an intermediate-level general-purpose programming language, not to be confused with C or C#. It was developed as a set of extensions to the C programming language to improve type-safety and add support for automatic resource management, object-orientation, generic programming, and exception handling, among other features.
