RE: [Dev-C++] string-version of '+'

[James G. <Jam...@Cl...>]

Your using strstream the wrong way, in the code below I'm using ostrstream
(output string stream) to be able to use the << operators.

#include <string>
#include <iostream>
#include <strstream>
using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  string MyString;
  char MyChar[200];

  ((MyString += "John has ") += "4") += " apples!";

  cout << MyString << endl;

  // Wrap the char in an ostratream to enable the use of '<<' operator the
same as cout etc.
  ostrstream(MyChar, sizeof(MyChar)) << "John has " << 10 << " apples!" <<
ends;

  MyString = MyChar;

  cout << MyString << endl;

  return 0;
}

Regards,

James.

Sorry, I need to clarify.. It's the

  MyString = MyStream.str();

line that the compiler bombs on.

This other line with the parentheses is ok.

  ((MyString += "John has ") += "4") += " apples!";
