Convert CString to int.

[arunkr6]

I'm working with VC++ using Visual Studio.net 2008 platform.I've a previous experice working on VS 6.0 only.

in my project I want to convert a CString value to integer. The code I've used is

int ss;
CString ab=25;
sscanf(ab,"%d",&ss);

the error message that came was
"sscanf cannot convert parameter 1 from CString to const char *".

How to fix it???

There is no such thing. Check the name again.

CString ab=25;

You call 25 a string?

You can also use atoi().

[VictorN]

1. Use _T() macro and _t... versions of C-runtime functions to make your code both UNICODE and ANSI aware.
2. You can also use _ttol, _ttoi, _tcstol functions.

int ss;
CString ab="25";
sscanf((const char*)ab,"%d",&ss);

Version with generic text mappings, according to VictorN's note:

int ss;
CString ab=_T("25");
_stscanf((LPCTSTR)ab, _T("%d") ,&ss);
