converting integer to string C++
I am trying to convert an integer to char array and I came across this piece of code
int i = 5;
std::string s;
std::stringstream out;
out << i;
s = out.str();
But when I try to print the value of s
it still pr开发者_运维技巧ints 5. I don't know if its supposed to do that or am I doing something wrong? Besides I would prefer if I could convert the same int to char array. But I would appreciate any help in the matter.
Thanks!
Code taken from: Alternative to itoa() for converting integer to string C++?
Yes, it's supposed to do that. You'd (primarily) notice the difference from just printing a number out directly if you do some other string-type manipulation on the result (e.g., concatenating it with other strings, searching for characters in the string).
Just for example:
std::cout << i+i; // should print "10"
std::cout << s+s; // should print "55"
Besides I would prefer if I could convert the same int to char array.
char *charPtr = new char[ s.length() + 1 ] ; // s is the string in the snippet posted
strcpy( charPtr, s.c_str() ) ;
// .......
delete[] charPtr ; // Should do this, else memory leak.
If you would like to stop worrying about issues like that you might be interested in boost/lexical_cast.hpp
.
#include <boost/lexical_cast.hpp>
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
int main() {
const int i=5;
const char* s = boost::lexical_cast<std::string>(i).c_str();
std::cout << s << std::endl;
}
