How do i convert a character array to string.

[Venkat]

Hi All,

Can someone tell me how do we convert a character array to string.
I know the other way.

For eg:-
String strvar = "hello";
printf("%s",strvar.c_str());

regards,

I hope you meant, string(lowercase 's'). And what are you doing in the
first statement? Converting a array of chars to a string object.

char arr[] = "Hello";
std::string str(arr);

I assume the "String" with the uppercase S is a typo, and you really
mean std::string. std::string has both a constructor and an assignment
operator that char* arguments.
std::string s("hello");

std::string s;

s = "hello";

You need to get a decent reference book that covers these things. This
is basic stuff.
