Description

System::AnsiStringT::WideChar converts the System::AnsiStringT to an array of wide characters, and returns the resulting wide-character array.

dest is a buffer the caller allocates to hold the return value. Use the System::AnsiStringT::WideCharBufSize method to determine the size needed to hold the entire string value.

destSize is the size, in bytes, of dest.

System::AnsiStringT::WideChar returns a pointer to the wide-character array that is written to dest.
