I want to convert my "LPCSTR" string to "CString ", how can i do so?

I wonder how lazy people have become just because they can get free help. You did not try something as simple as this before asking it on the internet:

LPCSTR str = "I'm the dumbest";
CString szStr = str;

if you think people are lazy out here and just can ask anything because here is free help available, so i suggest there's no need to make people more lazy by just answering their problems

I'm talking about YOU. How you are trying to generalize things by throwing around terms like 'people'! You do not belong to the list of 'people', because they follow the guidelines. And you are rude enough to come back and tell me not to offer anyone help. Thanks for the tip, but I ain't gonna stop it as I love it. Converting an LPCSTR to a CString? Holy cow! You neither did know what an LPCSTR is, nor did you know what a CString is. You did not try ANYTHING from your side and you came down to ask for help. People like you play a primal role in spoiling India's name in the International arena. FYI, I've marked your reply as abusive.

So, now you're taking the discussion out of its context and proving to be rude. I'm sorry, but I'm bringing more people here.

So, you still wanted my code and you did not know what you should do with VS 2005 to get rid of those simple errors. You don't know what a an LPCSTR is, you don't know what a CString is, you don't know generic text mappings, you don't know Unicode, but you develop software. You poor little sod.

ever heard off google??? try "LPCSTR" string to "CString" the first link would have given you the answer but I guess it's easyer to ask here and get an answer like Rajesh gave you (wich I support by the way)

If my help was helpfull let me know, if not let me know why. The only way we learn is by making mistakes.

Visual Studio 2005 will create project as with Unicode Character set option by default. (the compilation error will resolve if you change the character set to Multibyte (if you can)) I recommend you to use type safe TCHAR alternatives like LPCTSTR, TCHAR, TCHAR* and other routines. and also user _tcsXXX functions for manipulating strings. if you want to convert the a Unicode String to Multibyte, You can use MultiByteToWideChar API. See MSDN for Sample code. Another thing is that CString's internal storage will change according to UNICODE definition of project. So use it accordingly.

Don't worry Neha. This lad is a dickhead...Just ignore whatever he said. You are free to ask anything you like. But yeah it would be better if you first google it though. All the best for your work. tc Julia :)
