C++ fixed length string class?

Question

Is there anything like this in Standard C++ / STL? Ideally it should be constructed like

fstring s = fstring(10);

I need to sometimes cons

Answer 1

The closest approximation today is boost::array<char, 10>

Answer 2

Use e.g.

std::tr1::array<char, 10>

Answer 3

With ISO C++ +17 you can do this

#include <string_view>
......
char dataBuffer[BUFF_SIZE];
auto commandString = std::string_view{ dataBuffer };
......

Answer 4

C style character array?

char label[10] = "a string";
