How should i convert char array to CString Code: In my user.cpp file char Spread_name[20, Private_group[20]; CString a; a.Format(_T("User: connected to localhost;%s with private group %s\n"), Spread_name, Private_group ); In Spread_name, Private_group value are coming all right (showing proper string) but after giving a breakpoint my a.format value out put is some what like this Code: User: connected to localhost;[][][][][[][][][][] with private group[][][]][[]][][]][] Does anyone knows the solution
You're probably using a UNICODE build so CString is a CStringW and its Format member expects wide string arguments (wchar_t and not char). You an convert it in the format string though by using a capital 'S' as so: Code: char Spread_name[20], Private_group[20]; CString a; a.Format(_T("User: connected to localhost;%S with private group %S\n"), Spread_name, Private_group ); or just use wchar_t instead of char: Code: wchar_t Spread_name[20, Private_group[20]; CString a; a.Format(_T("User: connected to localhost;%s with private group %s\n"), Spread_name, Private_group ); or just use the TCHAR type to let the compiler decide based on the _UNICODE setting: Code: TCHAR Spread_name[20, Private_group[20]; CString a; a.Format(_T("User: connected to localhost;%s with private group %s\n"), Spread_name, Private_group );
