Convert uint64_t to std::string

Question

How can I transfer uint64_t value to std::string? I need to construct the std::string containing this value For example something like this:

void genString(uint6         


        

Answer 1

I use something like this code below. Because it's a template it will work with any type the supports operator<< to a stream.

#include 

template 
std::string tostring(const T& t)
{
    std::ostringstream ss;
    ss << t;
    return ss.str();
}

for example

uint64_t data = 123;
std::string mystring = tostring(data);
