GenICam::gcstring to QtString










0















I am using Qt 5 and the Basler pylon Lib.
this itself is based on GenICam which seams to define most standard interfaces itself.



In this case



class GenICam::gcstring
A string class which is a clone of std::string. More...


I am using this code which returns GenICam::gcstring



CStringPtr( nodemap.GetNode( "DeviceVendorName") )->GetValue()


I need to convert this to a QString, but obviously Qt does not have any conversion between gcstring and QString.



This works, but I am not convinced it is the best method, since gcstring is not 8 bit based.



QString strVendorName = QString::fromLatin1(CStringPtr( nodemap.GetNode( "DeviceVendorName") )->GetValue().c_str());
