how about:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <sstream>

int main()
{
std::string pi("3.1459");

std::stringstream s(pi);
double d;

s >> d;

std::cout << "d is " << d << std::endl;
}

output:
d is 3.1459

Hello Greg,

is there a way to use a AnsiString (sorry but normally I'm
programming in Delphi, PHP, C#)?

I was searching for it before. But my newsserver has only a pascal
newsgroup from borland... :(

Does AnsiString have some method to convert to a C string? I'm sure it does.

If so then you can use the sscanf function

AnsiString a = "12.34";
double d;
sscanf(a.some_method_to_convert_to_a_C_string(), "%lf", &d);

Yes, you are right. There are a function called "a.c_str()"...

Thank you!

Hi !

The Borland IDE is full of helpfull hints. Press F1 with the cursor on
the text 'AnsiString' and you will find the '.ToDouble()' function
under methods in the help menu.

Have fun

So, I fire up trusty ole google and go off to see if we can find
anything that might do waht you're looking for.

Lo and behold, within about 5 seconds I find the strtod function
