I'm reading bitcoin core source code. Is it possible to instantiate a CPubKey object with pubkey? I want to get bitcoin address from the pubkey by using bitcoin core's source. I can't find a good way.

I tried it like following but "invalid" is showed.

Code:

const char *cstr = "0396f8781a4900372a5d72d84718d146170d5983e67dff8b4a28fef80690c09767";
std::vector<unsigned char> vec(cstr, cstr + strlen(cstr));

CPubKey pubkey(vec);
if (pubkey.IsValid()) {
    cout << "valid" << endl;    
} else {
    cout << "invalid" << endl;
}
