You can explicitly convert the literal to a string:

 std::string array[] = {std::string("value")};

Note that you have to define this as an array, not a pointer though. Of course, an array mostly makes sense if you have more than one element, like:

string array[] = {string("value1"), string("value2"), string("etc")};
