Append an int to char*

Question

How would you append an integer to a char* in c++?

Answer 1

First convert the int to a char* using sprintf():

char integer_string[32];
int integer = 1234;

sprintf(integer_string, "%d", integer);

Then to append it to your other char*, use strcat():

char other_string[64] = "Integer: "; // make sure you allocate enough space to append the other string

strcat(other_string, integer_string); // other_string now contains "Integer: 1234"
