[Anu_Bala]

Hi, I want to convert CString array to managed code ot send it to C#. For normal CString i did like this,

CString menu = "MENU";
String ^ msg = gcnew String(menu);
Globals1::gwtoolbar->Add(msg);

But now i want to send array of string.i dont know how to do for CString array. When i gave like this it shows error

CString menu[10];
String[] ^ msg = gcnew String(menu);

How can i convert it?

I think you need to use the managed array; see the documentation here[^] for some samples.

You would have to do something like this:

array<String^>^ managedArray = gcnew array<String^>(5);
CString nativeArray\[5\];

for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
{
	managedArray\[i\] = Convert::ToString(i);
	nativeArray\[i\] = gcnew String(nativeArray\[i\]);
}

gcnew System::String(char *)

Try this once CString menu[5]; menu[5]={"1","2","3","4","5"}; String[] ^ msg = gcnew String(menu); msg += " (System::String)";
