CString::operator const char* ()

Syntax

operator const char* () const;

Remarks

This useful casting operator provides an efficient method to access the null-terminated C string contained in a CString object. No characters are copied; only a pointer is returned.

Be careful with this operator. If you change a CString object after you have obtained the character pointer, you may cause a reallocation of memory that invalidates the pointer.

Return Value

A character pointer if the cast was successful; otherwise a null pointer.
