Not yet. But I set a breakpoint there to make sure the path is all right.

converting LPCSTR to char*

Hi all,

I want to convert my LPCSTR value to char* how to do so.

Can anybody please help me in this.

Thanks in advance

LPCSTR is a const char pointer. Why do you want to remove the const ?
When asking a question, please be specific and tell exactly what you are trying to do. So, in which context do you want this conversion ?

if (and only if) you have this requirement because of a bad designed function prototype (and you cannot change it, e.g. you have a third party DLL), i.e. a function that in fact doesn't change input buffer but accepts char * as argument, then you can simply cast the pointer.

Use const_cast<char*> (variable).

HI...

you using unicode or muli-byte characters??

If u have compiled your program with UNICODE and _UNICODE defined, then LPTSTR will automatically become LPWSTR (Long pointer to a wide string) u cant assign this to char* but u can assign this to a variable of type wchar_t*.

after using wchar_t* use swprintf() to get proper output.

Did you read his message ? He was talking about LPCSTR and not LPTSTR.

ohh sorry then If you use T2A macro, it will work in UNICODE and MBCS.
please go through T2A macro

Re: converting LPCSTR to char*

Cedric Moonen5-Dec-07 0:09

Why would it be usefull to use the T2A macro ? A LPCSTR is a const char*.
I think you should read some documentation about the different string types to better understand the different namings.

correct
then why she wants to do that?

Re: converting LPCSTR to char*

Probably because the compiler complains about the constness.
