Converting string to char

xfceslacker · 10-20-2006, 09:25 AM

Hello,
The compiler I'm using is g++ 4.0.3. I want to convert a C++ string to char. The gtk_label_new() function takes a char, and I was using a string to get the value needed to put in the label. The function won't take a string so I need to convert that string to a char array.

Thanks

I'm hoping you mean std::string and char *. std::string has a method called c_str() that does what you want. In the future, go read the docs. They are easy to find by googling "std::string"?

I'll do that in the future. Sorry I didn't think todo that first.
