But instead I am looking for some function that does this like atoi() or itoa() for string to int and vice versa

Why ? That's quite simple, why do you want to use an existing function for that ?

Is there any function for strings to bool.

Not as far as I know.

Good news: it exists, is atob. The bad news is that you have to code it (anyway you got so many hints about). :-D

true/ false is stored in that

bool bVal = (temp == "true"?true:false);

why do you need the ?: operator ? the std::string::operator==() already returns a bool. in the same direction, why wouldn't you write this then :

bool bVal = ((temp == "true") == true ? true : false)

or

bool bVal = (((temp == "true") == true) == true ? true : false)

or just

bool bVal = (temp == "true")

;P
