Hi,

It looks that itoa is not supported by my compiler.
I tried with casting. However, I am getting an error:
Code:
error: invalid conversion from ‘char’ to ‘const char*’
error:   initializing argument 1 of ‘std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::basic_string(const _CharT*, const _Alloc&)
 [with _CharT = char, _Traits = std::char_traits<char>, _Alloc = std::allocator<char>]’

Code:
int ToLower(string my_input)
  {
         int string_length = my_input.length();
         for (int i=0; i<string_length; i++) {
// here trying to convert from int to string
my_input = (string) my_input[i];
    my_input[i]=tolower(my_input[i]);
      }
  return 0;
  }

Thanks.

Ok, I found, my mistake. I am converting NOT from string but from char to *char... so my_input[i] is a char.
working on that...

Hi,

I googled it.
This should work but I am not sure in 100%.
The problem is that the server I am using has crashedSmilie)
I would be grateful for your opinion.
Code:
int ToLower(string my_input)
  {
         int string_length = my_input.length();
         for (int i=0; i<string_length; i++) {
// here trying to convert from int to string
    typedef char charType; 
    charType MyChar = my_input[i];
    my_input[i]=tolower(my_input[i]);
      }
  return 0;
  }

I am sorry.
My post was to chaotic.
Greetings for all.
