Assigning char * to CString Object :: C++

Hi.

I have a char * to a data buffer. What is the best way to assign data from char * into a CString object? For example:

-----
// char *myChar = new char[10];
// memcpy(myChar, "abcdefghij", 10);
// CString myString;
-----

What is the best say to insert data from myChar into myString?

Thanks,
Kuphryn

Code:

---

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;


int main()

{
        char *myChar;
        string myString;

        myChar = new char[11];
        strcpy(myChar,"abcdefghij");
        myString = myChar;
        cout << myString <<endl;
        return 0;
}

That what you want?

Thanks.

That is similar to my final code.

-----
// CString myString = CString("abcdefghij");

There also is a couple of methods that work well. One that comes to mind is .Add.

CString csTest;
csTest.Add(string);

You also can do

CString csTest = "Blah Blah"; I don't think you need to cast that.

Although I haven't used CString for awhile and I don't have a compiler here so I might be off on some of this stuff.

Okay. Thanks.

If I'm not mistaken, CString allows explicit casting to LPCSTR, so you could simply make CStringVar = charVar;

Yes. You can cast a CString object to character array using LPCSTR.
