Question

I am doing a threading, but i don’t know how to print out the pointer value.

UINT __cdecl CThreadDlg::func(LPVOID pParam)
{
    data *ptr = (data*)pParam;
    AfxMessageBox(L"You have entered a thread function.");
    ptr->a = "abc12345";       // char * a
    AfxMessageBox(???);        // what should i put here to print out the value of a?

    return 0;
}

Answer 1

Maybe something like this:

CString a;
a.Format(_T("%p"), ptr->a);
AfxMessageBox(a);

Edit:
to get value ‘ptr->a’ points to:

a.Format(_T("%s), ptr->a);
