How Can I convert stringc to int?

[SirSami]

I have a problem at converting stringc type file to int. So, I have to get text from editBox and getText() returns stringc type data and I need to convert it to int format for futher use.

you can use the good old C function atoi(...):

Code: Select all

int val = atoi(txt.c_str());

Doesn't it return stringw? In that case you can force conversion by putting the c_str() result into a stringc object and get str_c() on that one again. Also, Irrlicht provides a strtol10 method which can convert a char* to an unsigned int, or use fast_atof and cast the result to int (in order to handle also negative numbers).

wcstol or wtol do it for wide strings. Of course Irrlicht could choose to implement wstrtol10...
