Str() vb equivilant in C++?

[punty]

Hello-
Just a quick question, is there an equivilant to the VB function str() which takes an integer, long, or float, and converts it into a string? Or, will I have to write my own in order to accomplish this task. Many thanks.

Using CString...

CString MyString;

MyString.Format("%d", MyInteger);

MyString.Format("%ld", MyLong);

MyString.Format("%f", MyFloat);



or Using character based array...

char MyBuffer[200];

wsprintf(MyBuffer, "%d", MyInteger);

wsprintf(MyBuffer, "%f", MyFloat);

// Etc..



Hope this helps,

Brendan, if you include stdlib.h you can use
itoa - integer to asci
atoi - asci to integer

There are also equivs to long and float.



char buf[20];
int num = 100;

itoa(num,buf, 10);

cout<<"string: "<<buf;

Thank you, both are good ways for what I need to do.
