Converting CStrings to char*

How do I convert from a CString to a character array.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
ie:
char* string1;
CString string2("Hello");
/*
How would I go about putting Hello
into string1?
*/

Thanks,

Try this...

char* string1;
CString string2("Hello");
string1 = string2.GetBuffer(-1);

char* string1;
CString string2("Hello");
// Try this...
string1 = new char[string2.GetLength()];
strcpy(string1,(LPCTSTR)string2);

this should work....


nms

char* s1;
CString s2 ("Hello");

s1 = (char*)(const char*)s2;
// This will xfer the contents of s2 to s1

Cheers!

I'd prefer this one:

char* string1 = NULL;
CString string2("Hello");
// Try this...
string1 = new char[string2.GetLength() + 1];
::strcpy(string1, string2);

Nope it won't. it will make s1 POINT to s2 which is different
