You can use StrStrI function.For using it u need to include "shlwapi.h"

e.g
CString Str="dc.xml,Copy";
LPTSTR pExist = StrStrI(Str, L"Copy");
if(pExist)
printf("Str contains Copy");
else
printf("Str does not contains Copy");

Why would you not use the find method that's built into CString, if CString is already being used? Not to mention that you will need to explicitly link to shlwapi.lib! Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

Since VOIP is prohibited within some area, broadband internet ISPs block VOIP ports or drop VOIP signal and voice packets,so i want to wrapp the VoIP trffic into a package which can not be detected by ISP.

So can any one please help what should i do for wrapping?
Which technology should I use?(may be SSL Tunneling or any other?)
Please help me.

hi,
i have the below code..
TCHAR buffer[SIZEOFTCHAR];
::GetSystemDirectory(buffer,SIZEOFTCHAR);
CString csPath;
csPath+=_T("");

i want to copy value in buffer to csPath and i want to append other string to csPath.Please let me know...

No need to convert anything, you can simply assign your buffer in your CString object:

CString csPath = buffer;

If you need to concatenate your buffer at the end of the CString content, you can also do it like this:

CString csPath = "Something";
csPath += buffer;

BTW, what is SIZEOFTCHAR ? What is its value ? If it is the size of one character, then your string will only be able to contain 1 single character, so I guess this is not really what you want.

CString is 16 bit under unicode but 8bit under non unicode version i guess.
but
so underunicode version direct conversion can be done as TCHAR is unsigned short.
where in non unicode version, WideCharToMultiByte() can be used

You have this code

HCURSOR hcur;
	hcur = ::LoadCursorFromFile((LPCWSTR)"C:\\eglobe.ani");  
	::SetSystemCursor(hcur,OCR_NORMAL);

This bit - (LPCWSTR)"C:\\eglobe.ani" - will not work. The string literal is of type LPCSTR. That cannot be correctly converted to LPCWSTR with a simple cast. Instead, use this:

hcur = ::LoadCursorFromFile(_T("C:\\eglobe.ani"));

The _T macro either uses the string literal ("C:\\eglobe.ani") or the wide-char equivalent (L"C:\\eglobe.ani") as necessary

if(hcur!=NULL)

Eeep - that's the WRONG way to change cursors.

With Windows, you either set the cursor in a window's class or respond to WM_SETCURSOR[^] messages to set the cursor. Your way is changing the cursor for the whole system - people will cuss you if you do that.
