Converting Int to String...

[bballmitch]

For some reason the following code is not compiling.
void Find_score(void)
{
glColor3f(1.0,0.0,0.0);
std::ostringstream ostr; //turn int score into a string
ostr << score; //score is defined some where
else
std::string LL = ostr.str();
glRasterPos3f (4.5F, -5.5F, 1.0F);
for(int i=0;i<=10;i++) //its never going to have more than 10
digits
{
switch(LL[i]) //if first number in score is one, draw
1...etc.
{
case '1':
drawString ("1"); //drawstring function is
declared somewhere else
break;
case '2':
drawString ("2");
break;
case '3':
drawString ("3");
break;
case '4':
drawString ("4");
break;
case '5':
drawString ("5");
break;
case '6':
drawString ("6");
break;
case '7':
drawString ("7");
break;
case '8':
drawString ("8");
break;
case '9':
drawString ("9");
break;
case '0':
drawString ("0");
break;
}
}
glRasterPos3f (4.0F, -5.5F, 1.0F);
drawString ("Points:");
}

The only error i get is " aggregate `std::ostringstream ostr' has
incomplete type and cannot be defined " and i don't get why its doing
that. Can someone tell me what that means?

You didn't include <sstream>, most likely.
