Convert wchar_t* to LPCSTR

wchar_t *fname;
//wchar_t name;
//wcscpy(name, fname);
//const int max = wcslen(name);
char cTemp[MAX_PATH];
sprintf(cTemp,"%S",*fname);
fp = CreateFile((LPCSTR)cTemp, ......);

Invert an image in OpenCV

IplImage *input, *output;

cvXorS(input, cvScalar(255), output)

http://ioctl.eu/blog/2009/05/04/opencv_invert

openCV 8UC1 Error unsupported format

To fix change the dept of IplImage to 8 and change the nChannels to 1

something like .. .
IplImage *img;
img->depth = 8;
img->nChannels = 1;

Not correct way since the picture will be more stretch than the original
finding more correct way ...

IplImage *img; // Kept color image (image that nChannels > 1)
IplImage *dst = cvCreateImage(cvSize(img->width,img->height), 8, 1);
cvCvtColor(img, dst, CV_RGB2GRAY);
