URGENT Convert a CString to WCHAR

Hi Dj_Fx8,

you may try this

CString str = "SomeFileName" ;
LPWSTR lpszW = new WCHAR[255];

LPTSTR lpStr = str.GetBuffer( str.GetLength() );
int nLen = MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, 0,lpStr, -1, NULL, NULL);
MultiByteToWideChar(CP_ACP, 0, lpStr, -1, lpszW, nLen);

//do your stuff here

delete[] lpszW;

#include <atlbase.h>


USES_CONVERSION;

WCHAR s[100];

#ifdef _UNICODE
    _tcscpy(s, m_szFileName);
#else
    _tcscpy(s, A2W(m_szFileName));
#endif

Hi

leflon -- Ummm Forgive me if I am in error but I fail to see where the WCHAR variable is at  in your code

Alex I get the following error for this line  _tcscpy(xx, A2W(m_szFileName));
error C2664: 'strcpy' : cannot convert parameter 1 from 'unsigned short [100]' to 'char *'
        Types pointed to are unrelated; conversion requires reinterpret_cast, C-style cast or function-style cast

Sorry leflon, I just reread youd code, Now I see it

hui,
needed a second look myself :)

Thanks leflon, the points are yours

thanks for the grade!
