hi I am trying to converting const char* to unsigned char[1024]--

You can't.

const char* is pointer
unsigned char[1024] is an array

What can be done is to initialize the pointer with the address of the array
with the appropriate casting :

unsigned char a[1024];
const char*p=(const char*)a;

if your const char * is pointing to 1024 bytes of allocated data, then you
can do just use memcpy:

const char *p;
unsigned char a[1024];

p = malloc(1024);
/* ... blah blah blah ... */

/* copy the data pointed to by 'p' into the array 'a' */
memcpy(a, p, 1024);

note that if char is signed, then you might get some strange values (but
then again you might not).  hope it works out for you.
