char -> string

[Jerrie85]

how would i convert a char array to string?

e.g string temp;
char chararray[100];

temp should have chararray's contents from 0 to 500

how would you do this?

If the char array is null terminated, you can just assign it:

string temp = chararray;
// or
string two;
two = chararray;

If the array is not null terminated, or you only want to assign the first 50 characters, you can do like this:

string temp(chararray, chararray + 50);
string two;
two.assign(chararray, chararray + 50);

how would you assign it to the string from the nth position to the ith position, instead of from 0 to n?

so for a char[1000], i wanna assign to string from position 3 - 10?

Convert that to a CString and after that you can do whatever manipulations you want with that...

Ahh, c'mon, you can figure it out!

... Ok, here you go:

char chararray[1000];
// ... load chararray
string temp(chararray + 3, chararray + 10);
string two;
two.assign(chararray + 3, chararray + 10);
