Carbon CFString

[pktcperlc++java]

I know how to draw a CFString to a text control in carbon with CFRelease and DrawOneControl, but I can't find a function to do the opposite.

how do I read the CFString value of an editable text control?

I don't know how helpful this is, but in Cocoa you can

[textField stringValue];

it might be helpful if I had a little context with which to see how to use it

NSString *mystring = [textField stringValue];

I told you, it's Cocoa and Objective-C. I just figured that Carbon text controls might have a similar stringValue function.
