Whats the equivalent of CString.m_pchData in VS.NET?
-
Well, I finally got a hold of Visual Studio .NET and now I'm trying to rebuild my DLLs which contain a bunch of MFC-based classes. I'm getting tons of errors, the first of which I don't have a solution for. I have a string class which derives from CString and uses the old
m_pchDataprotected member from 6.0. So now since apparently it's no longer in CString, I get a 'm_pchData' : undeclared identifier error. What should I do? My class needs the equivalent of this member variable. Thanks, Alvaro Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. - Albert Einstein -

typedef ATL::CStringT< TCHAR, StrTraitMFC< TCHAR > > CString;. You may just as well extract the CString implementation from the MFC6 classes. (afx.h + strcore.cpp)
sometimes it helps to look at the IL generated code a MS guy on develop.com "answering" .NET issues

You should use those, because that is the designed interface of CString. Signature space for rent. Apply by email to....
