Convert Char array to String

[Erasermaster]

Does anybody know how I would go about converting a char array to a string?

Thanks.

where someCharArray is an array of chars (or a pointer to the first element in such an array)

string aNiceString(someCharArray);

will give you a string object named aNiceString

You can do it by declaration of a string or by assignment operator. For example

std::string s = "This is a declaration";

s = "This is  an assignment";

If the char array is not null terminated the above will not work. In that case you have to specify the length to the string constructor.

string aNiceString(someCharArray, lengthOfCharArray);
