convert int to char * in C++

Question

I want to convert an int to char *

char str[10]=;
int i=567;

str=itoa(i, str, 10)

This gives an error on str the third line

str must have a modifiable lvalue

And still, you better convert it to an std::string and then use the. .c_str() method... — Eitan T, May 27 '12 at 17:16

Check the third line. itoa takes a char pointer and modifies it. – OmnipotentEntity May 27 '12 at 17:18

_itoa_s is now suggested as itoa is deprecated – Alex May 18 '17 at 17:35
