conversion of Cstring to BYTE

Question

I am using Visual Studio c++ and want to convert the Cstring to Byte. I have written this code but it gave me error in the second line that \"data\" is undefined.

Answer 1

Make sure you include atlstr.h to provide the definition of CString, as below:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include 
#include 

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
    CString data = _T( "OK");
    LPBYTE pByte = new BYTE[data.GetLength() + 1];
    memcpy(pByte, (VOID*)LPCTSTR(data), data.GetLength());
    return 0;
}
