CString::GetLength

int GetLength( ) const;

Return Value

A count of the bytes in the string.

Remarks

For multibyte character sets (MBCS), GetLength counts each 8-bit character; that is, a lead and trail byte in one multibyte character are counted as two bytes.

Example

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