How to convert wxString to unsigned char *

[iko...@earthlink.net]

Hi, ALL,
I can perform a conversion from unsigned char *
to wxString using FromAscii(), but I don't know/can't
find the way to convert other way around.

Thank you.

You can try:
string.mb_str(wxConvUTF8).data()
( you can use other conversions, but wxConvUTF8 will do the work for
most cases)
but it returns char* and not unsinged char*

but it works for me

No, it does not work for me.
I need an "unsigned char *" as I will cast it to "SQLCHAR *", which is, I think,
7-bit ASCII.

Any other ideas?

Thank you.

Thanks.
