_variant_t to CString
-
I suppose you need the string representation of the
_variant_tvalue. You've to properly format aCStringobject, depending on the value of thevtmember of the encapsulatedVARIANTstruct. For instanceCString str;
_variant_t v1;v1 = 0.53;
switch (v1.vt)
{
//...
case VT_R8:
str.Format(_T("%g"), v1.dblVal);
break;
//...
}MessageBox(str, _T("Variant value"));

This is going on my arrogant assumptions. You may have a superb reason why I'm completely wrong. -- Iain Clarke
[My articles]Noooooo - you don't need to bother with that - there's a VariantChangeType function that'll do that for you when you convert a VARIANT to a BSTR. And even more conveniently, the combination of _variant_t extractor operators and CString constructors will do all that for you. A simple assignment of _variant_t to CString is all that's needed...

In VS2008, this should do the job...
_variant_t v;
// Set a value in v
CString s = v;CStringhas assignment operator and constructor overl;oads that take aconst VARIANT&._variant_thas an extrractor that returns aVARIANT.Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p

I (and Microsoft, who wrote the _variant_t and CString code) have helped you - you just assign the _variant_t to the CString - what more do you want?!?!?!?!?

Nice to know :thumbsup:. What about
_variant_tcontaining arrays? :)If the Lord God Almighty had consulted me before embarking upon the Creation, I would have recommended something simpler. -- Alfonso the Wise, 13th Century King of Castile.

See what happen.
_variant_t vtValue;
vtValue = m_pRset->Fields->GetItem("Bianry")->GetValue();
CString b=vtValue;
output is b = "??4"
when i copy the vtValues at the time of debug then i got values
safearray of UI1 = [20](54 '6',53 '5',52 '4',54 '6',52 '4',0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0)Any more information if you nedd then i will give you.

Thanks for responce.I hava a biray type data in _variant_t. _variant_t v1; v1=(54 '6',53 '5',52 '4',54 '6',52 '4',0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0); Can i convert these values in CString or not. Origal values is"65464". Plz help me

As it's an array, VariantChangeType's not going to work. So, I'd suggest the code below. I'm assuming you want to access the non-null characters of the array and make them into a string?
CComSafeArray<char, VT_UI1> sa(V_ARRAY(&v));
CString s;
for(int index=sa.GetLowerBound();index<=sa.GetUpperBound()&&sa[index];++index)
{
s+=sa[index];
}[edit] You'll also need to #include atlsafe.h and oleauto.h [/edit]

Use CComSafeArray[^].
_variant_t v;
// Assign a SAFEARRAY value to v
CComSafeArray<char, VT_UI1> sa(V_ARRAY(&v));

Hi Stuart, What do you think about this VT_UI1 SAFEARRAY to CStringA conversion method?
BSTR b; BstrFromVector(pSA,&b); CStringA s = (LPCSTR)b;
Best Wishes, -David DelauneNew to me - that'll teach me to do what I've told many other people to do and read the documentation :laugh: And of course it'll work with wide CStrings as well.
