Adding an int to a string
Author
Heyas,
I am trying to add two ints to a string. They are the coordinates of the player''s sprite that I want to be displayed to help with debugging a problem I am helping with the collision detection in my game.
Here is what I am doing now:
stringstream does the trick.
You could write a little wrapper function to do it for you:

#include <sstream>std::string IntToString(int n){ std::stringstream s; s << n; return s.str();}std::stringstream lsPosition;lsPosition << Sprite.ShowXPos() << ", " << Sprite.ShowYPos();std::cout << lpPosition.str();[edited by - Agony on May 26, 2004 5:06:06 PM]

Try
// Sprite.ShowXPos() and ShowYPos() only returns the X and Y positions, which are both of type int string lsXPos = Sprite.ShowXPos(); string lsYPos = Sprite.ShowYPos(); string lsPosition = String.Format("{0}, {1}", lsXPos, lsYPos);quote:Original post by oreillym
the itoa() function converts ints to strings.
The itoa() function is a non-standard function that converts ints to character arrays.
You can't concatenate an int to a string like that. Look at streams.

been looking for that for nearly a year :D
thanks
strange though that I cant find this header or class in the STL index at the site of SGI

To hell with the STL!
char szBuffer[1028];
sprintf(szBuffer, "%d, %d", int1, int2);
(Just thought I''d show that STL isn''t the only way to do this!)
char szBuffer[1028];
sprintf(szBuffer, "%d, %d", int1, int2);

That would be because std::stringstream is not part of the STL.

However, he was using strings to begin with (not char*), and as always with C functions, you have to worry about buffer size - even with a 1028 character buffer, you really should be using snprintf(). C++ streams save you from this inconvenience.
