Back
anyways...
the first solution works great.
caching meshes to hdd from now on... 87 times faster in comparison to
vbscript - I think 20 percent are caused by mr rabiller's tip in terms of
portnames
versus portindices....
cheers

This seems like too much code. This can probably be simplified to:
// string buffers
char charString[1024];
// convert CString to char
wcstombs( charString, myCString.GetWideString(), 1024 );
And prevents a potential buffer overflow crash in swprintf if the string
happens to be longer than 1024 characters.
If you really want the intermediate buffer, at least use _snwprintf instead
of swprintf.

Example ( myCString is the CString which gets converted to char string ) :
// string buffers
char charString[1024];
wchar_t wcharString[1024];
// convert CString to char
swprintf( wcharString, L"%s", myCString.GetWideString() );
wcstombs( charString, wcharString, 1024 );

CString stores wide characters. Use CString method "const wchar_t*
GetWideString() const", then use "FILE* _wfopen( const wchar_t* filename, const
wchar_t* mode )" or a similar open function. You could also take a look at
function "int wctomb( char* mbchar, wchar_t wchar )".

Maybe I am dumb.....

I need this to read files inside of a c++ operator...
really weird... just doesn't work...
thanks,
