I am trying to extract the contents of the DOM document and write to a text file in ASCII.
I tried using the strdup but the compiler complains "cannot convert parameter 1 from 'const nsAString::char_type *' to 'const char *'"
if I use strdup(name.get()) where name is nsEmbedString.
What are the other ways of converting from the EmbedString type to an ASCII type for writing?
Thank you. Abhilash

I have Gecko-sdk 1.4 for windows and am using Visual C++ .NET. What is the library that I have to link against for ToNewCString?
I have the following lines in my code:
nsEmbedString name; char *str; domDocument->GetLocalName(name); str = ToNewCString(name);
|ToNewCString| is not a frozen API. Perhaps you'd be better off using |strdup(name.get())|? (Or, if using the right allocator is an issue, maybe using nsMemory::Alloc and then strcpy? Or do you even need the copy at all?)
