int sendto(int s, const void *msg, size_t len, int flags, const struct sockaddr *to, socklen_t tolen);

Rep:
I had the same question yesterday under the title g_string_append problem. Although I didn't know that my problem was assigning a double to a string until a responder pointed it out. Here's the answer I finally found to work:
Code:
gchar *string_start;
gint cmin_start = 1440;
/* assign the integer to a string */
sprintf(string_start, "%d", cmin_start);
g_print("%s\n", string_start);
