Question

I\'m trying to build a string using data elements stored in a std::list, where I want commas placed only between the elements (ie, if elements are {A,B,C,D} in list, result stri

Answer 1

Yet another possibility:

#include "infix_iterator.h"
#include 

typedef std::list > DataItemList;

std::string Compose(DataItemList const &diList) {
    std::ostringstream ret;
    infix_ostream_iterator out(ret, ",");

    for (item = diList.begin(); item != diList.end(); ++item)
        *out++ = (*item)->ToString();
    return ret.str();
}

You can get infix_iterator.h from Google's Usenet archive (or various web sites).
