Catch Text written down in combo box

[Jorik]

Hi,

i added a edit box in my programm, and searching for a possibillity to get always the actual text written down there when a button has been clicked.

My code so far:

Code: Select all

gui::IGUIEditBox *_pSubmitNameBox = _pGUIEnvironment->addEditBox(L"", core::rect<s32>(45,148,368,192),false,_pBackgroundRootObject,3);

const wchar_t *objectToSaveText = _pSubmitNameBox->getText();

if i click a button this will be executed::

Code: Select all

std::cout <<objectToSaveText  << std::endl;

The output i get is unfortunatly not the text written down, it is the position where the pointer is saved.

I tried also:

Code: Select all

std::cout <<*objectToSaveText  << std::endl;

But then i get the ascii number.


How can i get the Text?

Code: Select all

std::cout

You are trying to output wide char. cout won't work.
Either use irrlichts logger or std::wcout.
