C++: converting WCHAR to LPCWSTR - real working example

Question

I have a situation where I need to convert this:

WCHAR path[260];

to:

LPCWSTR pathAfterConversion;

How can I do that?

Answer 1

LPCWSTR pathAfterConversion = path;

should work fine.

Note that WCHAR is actually wchar_t and LPCWSTR is actually wchar_t const*. Both are typedefs.

Answer 2

pathAfterConversion = path;

No conversion necessary.
