Problem with reading of edit control

[pcultras]

I'm having problem with writing a text from a control to a file and i can't figure out where the problem lies... Also I don't get the error that the LBuffer is empty... Could anyone help?

void ChangeSettings002(HWND hwnd){
	DWORD BufferLength, BufferLength1; LPSTR LBuffer; HWND LogCtrl;

	LogCtrl = GetDlgItem(hwnd, IDC_CHANGENAME);
	BufferLength = GetWindowTextLength(LogCtrl);
	BufferLength1 = BufferLength + 1;
	LBuffer = (LPSTR)GlobalAlloc(GPTR, BufferLength1);
	GetWindowText(LogCtrl, LBuffer, BufferLength1);

	if(LBuffer == NULL){
		MessageBox(NULL, "LBuffer == NULL", "ERROR", MB_OK);
	}

	std::string Change = LBuffer;

	std::ofstream set2("settings/002.bin");
	set2 << Change;
	set2.close();
}

Have you considered using GetDlgItemText?
