    conversion of an int to a string in c++, using a stringstream object :

    method 1:

    #include <iostream>

    #include <sstream> // Required for stringstreams

    #include <string>

    std::string IntToString ( int number )

    {

    std::ostringstream oss;

    // Works just like cout

    oss<< number;

    // Return the underlying string

    return oss.str();

    }

    int main()

    {

    int number = 12345;

    std::string result = IntToString ( number );

    // Now we can use concatenation on the number!

    std::cout<<"~~{" + result + "}~~\n";

    }

    method 2 : it will display as true r false

    #include <sstream>

    #include <string>

    using namespace std;

    bool StringToInt(const string &s, int &i);

    int main(void)

    {

    string s1 = "12";

    string s2 = "ZZZ";

    int result;

    if (StringToInt(s1, result))

    {

    cout << "The string value is " << s1

    << " and the int value is " << result << endl;

    }

    else

    {

    cout << "Number conversion failed" <<endl;

    }

    if (StringToInt(s2, result))

    {

    cout << "The string value is " << s2

    << " and the int value is " << result << endl;

    }

    else

    {

    cout << "Number conversion failed on " <<s2 <<endl;

    }

    return(0);

    }

    bool StringToInt(const string &s, int &i)

    {

    istringstream myStream(s);

    if (myStream>>i)

    return true;

    else

    return false;

    /*

    * Program output:

    The string value is 12 and the int value is 12

    Number conversion failed on ZZZ

    *

    */

    method 3 : The simpest method of all

    #include<iostream>

    #include<string>

    #include<sstream>

    using namespace std;

    string itos(int i)// convert int to string

    {

    stringstream s;

    s << i;

    return s.str();

    }

    int main()

    {

    int i = 127;

    string ss = itos(i);

    const char* p = ss.c_str();

    cout << ss << " " << p << "\n";

    }

    #include<stdlib.h>

    ...

    for integer

    itoa(int n,char* s);

    for long

    ltoa(long int n, char*s);
