CA2WEX Class
This class is used by the string conversion macros CA2TEX, CA2CTEX, CT2WEX, and CT2CWEX, and the typedef CA2W.
template<
int t_nBufferLength = 128
>
class CA2WEX
Parameters
- t_nBufferLength
The size of the buffer used in the translation process. The default length is 128 bytes.
Remarks
Unless extra functionality is required, use CA2TEX, CA2CTEX, CT2WEX, CT2CWEX, or CA2W in your code.
This class contains a fixed-size static buffer which is used to store the result of the conversion. If the result is too large to fit into the static buffer, the class allocates memory using malloc, freeing the memory when the object goes out of scope. This ensures that, unlike text conversion macros available in previous versions of ATL, this class is safe to use in loops and that it won't overflow the stack.
If the class tries to allocate memory on the heap and fails, it will call AtlThrow with an argument of E_OUTOFMEMORY.
By default, the ATL conversion classes and macros use the current thread's ANSI code page for the conversion. If you want to override that behavior for a specific conversion, specify the code page as the second parameter to the constructor for the class.
The following macros are based on this class:
CA2TEX
CA2CTEX
CT2WEX
CT2CWEX
The following typedef is based on this class:
- CA2W
For a discussion of these text conversion macros, see ATL and MFC String Conversion Macros.
