VB's chr() function equivalent in vc++

[vanip]

can anybody tell abt the VB's chr() equivalent in VC++?

[Cedric Moonen]

Please when asking things like that, explain what the function does. I'm not at all familiar with VB so I needed to check in the MSDN for the function. It looks like this function returns the char associated with an ASCII number, am I right ? There is no need to call a function in C++, just cast your integer into a char and that will do the trick: char NewChar = (char)65;

Thanks for ur help! i tried the same way. But as i am not sure of correctness, i placed here.Thanks once again

in VC++ there is no need for the conversion... in vb Dim MyChar As Char MyChar = Chr(65) ' Returns "A". in vc++ char MyChar = 65; is enough nave

[Cedric Moonen]

Yes, but to avoid a warning because you are converting from int to char (possible loss of data), make the casting explicit: char MyChar = (char)65; -- modified at 4:51 Friday 21st April, 2006

A charting control. It's been ages that I developped it, but never had the time to make an article (or, I always delayed it ;P).
