About .NET string to stringw

Hi, does anyone know how to convert the .NET string to stringw?

String^ net_s = "Hello .NET"; //.Net string

stringw s=(stringw)net_s;

It gives me an error as following:

1>.\main.cpp(221) : error C2440: 'type cast' : cannot convert from 'System::String ^' to 'irr::core::stringw'
1> Conversion requires a constructor or user-defined-conversion operator, which can't be used by const_cast or reinterpret_cast

Thanks.

Out of curiosity are you using the .NET version of Irrlicht?

Yes. I use it in my unmanged c++ program. But I need to pass something to the managed dll which is written in c#. So need to make this conversion.
