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;
  }

NAME
TIFFWarning, TIFFSetWarningHandler - library warning interface SYNOPSIS
#include <tiffio.h> void TIFFWarning(const char* module, const char* fmt, ...) #include <stdarg.h> typedef void (*TIFFWarningHandler)(const char* module, const char* fmt, va_list ap); TIFFWarningHandler TIFFSetWarningHandler(TIFFWarningHandler handler); TIFFWarning invokes the library-wide warning handler function to (normally) write a warning message to stderr. The fmt parameter is a printf(3S) format string, and any number of arguments can be supplied. The module parameter is interpreted as a string that, if non-zero, should be printed before the message, and is typically used to identify the software module in which a warning is detected. Applications that desire to capture control in the event of a warning should use TIFFSetWarningHandler to override the default warning han- dler. A NULL(0) warning handler function may be installed to suppress error messages. TIFFSetWarningHandler returns a reference to the previous error handling function.
