C++/CLI String

[chesschi]

Hi,

I am new to .NET CLI. I want to convert a string carat (String^) to character array (char []). Is there a quick way to do that?

Thank you.

Almost none of the regulars know C++/CLI. I recommend that you post in the MSDN Forums.

See if this is what you're trying to do.

String^ stg = "hello";
Char stgChar[5];
for(int i=0;i<stg->Length;i++)
    {
	stgChar[i] = stg[i];
    }

I finally found a post to do that. Thanks anyway!

String^ cliString = "hello";
System::IntPtr ptr = System::Runtime::InteropServices::Marshal::StringToHGlobalAnsi(cliString);
std::string stdString = static_cast<char *>(ptr.ToPointer());
System::Runtime::InteropServices::Marshal::FreeHGlobal(ptr);
