Silly Question

ZomeonE · 2000-01-13T19:47:25

How do I convert a int to LPCTSTR in c++? I want to print some values of int''s to debug my game using TextOut(hdc, x, y, LPCTSTR, strlen(LPCTSTR));

I'm always using wsprintf.

int score = 5;char* OutputString;wsprintf (OutputString, "Score: %d", score);

That's fine.

wide character support depending on compilation flags and also uses _cdecl calling convention instead of pascal calling convention.

wsprintf also has a 1024 byte limit on the string lengths.
I don''t think swprintf has that limitation though.
(Not a typo swprintf is another multibyte print string function.)
