How can I convert an Int to a CString?

Question

I can convert a Double to a CString using _ecvt

result_str=_ecvt(int,15,&decimal,&sign);

So, is there a method like the one above that converts an int to CString?

Solution 1

Here's one way:

CString str;
str.Format("%d", 5);

In your case, try _T("%d") or L"%d" rather than "%d"

Solution 2

If you want something more similar to your example try _itot_s. On Microsoft compilers _itot_s points to _itoa_s or _itow_s depending on your Unicode setting:

CString str;
_itot_s( 15, str.GetBufferSetLength( 40 ), 40, 10 );
str.ReleaseBuffer();

it should be slightly faster since it doesn't need to parse an input format.
