CString::ReleaseBuffer

  • 项目

voidReleaseBuffer(intnNewLength**=-1);**

Parameters

nNewLength

The new length of the string in characters, not counting a null terminator. If the string is null-terminated, the -1 default value sets the CString size to the current length of the string.

Remarks

Use ReleaseBuffer to end use of a buffer allocated by GetBuffer. If you know that the string in the buffer is null-terminated, you can omit the nNewLength argument. If your string is not null-terminated, then use nNewLength to specify its length. The address returned by GetBuffer is invalid after the call to ReleaseBuffer or any other CString operation.

Example

The following example demonstrates the use of CString::ReleaseBuffer.

// example for CString::ReleaseBuffer
CString s;
s = "abc";
LPTSTR p = s.GetBuffer( 1024 );
strcpy(p, "abc");   // use the buffer directly
ASSERT( s.GetLength() == 3 ); // String length = 3
s.ReleaseBuffer();  // Surplus memory released, p is now invalid.
ASSERT( s.GetLength() == 3 ); // Length still 3
