int GetMenuString( UINT nIDItem, LPSTR lpString, int nMaxCount, UINT nFlags ) const;
nIDItem
Specifies the integer identifier of the menu item or the offset of the menu item in the menu, depending on the value of nFlags.
lpString
Points to the buffer that is to receive the label. You can pass a CString object for this parameter.
nMaxCount
Specifies the maximum length (in bytes) of the label to be copied. If the label is longer than the maximum specified in nMaxCount, the extra characters are truncated.
nFlags
| nFlags | Interpretation of nIDItem |
| MF_BYCOMMAND | Specifies that the parameter gives the command ID of the existing menu item. This is the default if neither MF_BYCOMMAND nor MF_BYPOSITION is set. |
| MF_BYPOSITION | Specifies that the parameter gives the position of the existing menu item (the first item is at position 0). |
Copies the label of the specified menu item to the specified buffer.
The nMaxCount parameter should be one larger than the number of characters in the label to accommodate the null character that terminates a string.
Specifies the actual number of bytes copied to the buffer, not including the null terminator.
