Yes, it is simply because UNICODE is defined by default (which was not the case with VC6). I strongly suggest that you read the article given by Led Mike, things will be much more clear afterwards.

The operator is a member of the CSimpleStringT class, which is the base
class of CStringT.
The actual operator is PCXSTR (the ATL type), which is the equivalent of LPCTSTR
(a Win32 type).
Here's your code using generic text types:
TCHAR buffer[MAX_PATH];
GetModuleFileName(NULL,buffer,MAX_PATH);
CString path = buffer;
path = path.Left(path.ReverseFind(_T('\\'))+1);
path += _T("result.mp3");
f = _tfopen( path , _T("wb")); <code>
See Generic-Text Mappings in Tchar.h[^]
and for Unicode info: International Programming[^]

Read the documentation about CString::GetBuffer and you will see why you have to absolutely avoids it if you don't know exactly what you are doing.

Visual C++ 2005 doesn't support (LPCTSTR) cast operator.
thus I need an interface to change a CString object to a char*
exactly now I am porting an project from VC6 to VC2005 and it is my problem

There a various ways:
1)
CString str = "filename";
char charPtr[100];
sprintf(charPtr, "%s", str);
2)
CString str = "filename";
char* charPtr = str.GetBuffer(str.GetLength());

Memory Leak here !
Why the hell do people use that dangerous GetBuffer() function when it's absolutely useless ?

Ok I will try. What you need to do is read the documentation.[^]
Also reading this might help as well.[^]
In my experience not all authors match every reader. So if you find reading those sources don't supply your need 100% keep looking for more. The bottom line is what you need to do is read and study rather than type code and forum messages.

In addition to super_ttd's reply...
If you must use fopen(), then you should probably use a CStringA.
CString has a generic internal character type, depending on whether
UNICODE or _UNICODE is defined.
If you want to use the generic text CString, then it will pair nicely
with the generic text version of fopen(), which is _tfopen().
Gut Mikh Tappe wrote: char buffer[MAX_PATH];
GetModuleFileName(NULL,(LPWCH)buffer,MAX_PATH);
Bad cast!! GetModuleFileName takes a LPTSTR as its second parameter.
Your buffer, therefore, should be a TCHAR type, not char.
Mind your types.....if you need a cast to get something to compile, look at WHY.

Hello all together!
In my current project i am trying to add a scrollbar to a CStatic control. This CStatic control is placed dynamicaly on a CWnd using Create(...). The scrollbar is provided with the CScrollHelper class and the scrollbars are already visible. My problem is that the scrollbars can not be used...i think the events are not passed to the CStatic...
Has anyone an idea how to do it?

Looks like this guy might.[^] Notice there is a forum at the bottom of the article for asking questions about using CScrollHelper

ok, i know this article and the forum at the bottom ...
but i did not find an approach for my problem. (scrolbars are not accessible on a static control)
|

I've implemented a custum control deriving a class from CStatic
and performing a custom drawing.
This controls works fine when I put it in a Dialog (calling
Mycontrol.Invalidate() - in MyDialog class - causes control redrawing).
If I put the same control in a DialogBar calling
Mycontrol.Invalidate() doesn't causes control redrawing, I've to
call MyDialog.Invalidate(): in this way the whole DialogBar
is redrawn and Mycontrol is redrawn within it.
Whats is this different behaviour due to ?
Thanks

Hi, please try calling UpdateWindow after Invalidate. It should work in both cases.

At the top of my head two ways comes to mind:
1. override OnDraw() and draw the image youself
2. create a picture control behind the other controls in the dialog

For dialog you can use of CImage class and for button you can use of SetBitmap.

I have one excel file on my system . Is there any api to connect my MFC application with
the excel file so that I update particular cell from my MFC application and that takes place
in the excel file .also vice versa is true i.e any change in excel file cell I get the event in
my MFC application.

That can be accomplished by automating Excel through COM interfaces, even if you don't know the file format.

In that aspect the file with the Excel spreadsheet is just a file, i.e. anything you can do with a file you can do with the Excel document.
This means that cannot be asynchronously notified if a file has changed without a filter driver. Even if you had such a filter driver the only thing it could do would be polling whether the data that correspond to the cell you desired has changed or not, or be as basic as telling "the file has changed".
What you can do is tag the modification time of the Excel document and check the file time yourself. If the file has been modified you can open it in Excel, again through automation, and investigate the desired cell for changes.
