Convert char array into CString

Johpoke

I have a char array like the prevois one, ( char data[64] = "101...........) but now i need to convert all of that char array into a normal mfc CString, without the char ender ofcourse. How is this easily done? ive played with strcpy, but couldnt get it to work, thanks!!!!

If it's a non-Unicode build you can use CString str = data; For a unicode build you can use TCHAR data[64] = "101..........."; CString str = data; For a unicode build where the string must stay a char type you can use char data[64] = "101..........."; CStringA str = data; For a unicode build where the data must stay a char type but the CString is UNICODE you can use char data[64] = "101..........."; CString str = CA2T(data);

Thanks, its fixed, and yet another problem, with my char array, i now need to set it, but it doesnt seem to work, ie. char data[64]; data = "011111...."; [im feeding it the right amount of char any ideas? thanks

Are you saying there's 64 characters in your initialization string? If so then that's bad :) You need to have room for the NULL terminator. If you need 64 chars then define your data variable to a length of 65.

yea i know about the end part the /0 or if its a \0 but i use 63 of them, 64 with that, but i just need to be able to set all of it like data = "10100010..... its probably something simple im forgetting as usual-.. thanks

Instead of char data[64]; data = "011111...."; try char data[64] = "011111...."; or char data[64]; strcpy(data, "011111....");
