CListBox::GetText

Syntax

int GetText( int nIndex, char FAR* lpBuffer ) const;

void GetText( int nIndex, CString& rString ) const;

Parameters

nIndex

Specifies the zero-based index of the string to be retrieved.

lpBuffer

Points to the buffer that receives the string. The buffer must have sufficient space for the string and a terminating null character. The size of the string can be determined ahead of time by calling the GetTextLen member function.

rString

A reference to a CString object.

Remarks

Gets a string from a list box. The second form of this member function fills a CString object with the string text.

Return Value

The length (in bytes) of the string, excluding the terminating null character. If nIndex does not specify a valid index, the return value is LB_ERR.
