Hex function in C++ ?

[AlbafaN]

Is there a function in C++ like VB's Hex function? ... I dont feel like writing my own

[Chris]

how about sprintf with "%X"

[parksie]

#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

string Hex(unsigned long num) {
    ostringstream oss;
    oss << hex << num;
    return oss.str();
}

int main() {
    unsigned long number = 0xDEADBEEF;
    unsigned long another = 0x1COFFEE1;

    cout << "0x" << hex << number << endl;
    cout << "0x" << Hex(another) << endl;
}

only problem is.... i want to put the hexed result into a char array.

I need something like...

Hex(int number, char* result);

Ah, just noticed the sprintf post..... I forgot all about sprintf

[parksie]

You asked for C++, so that's what I gave you. Why a char array? What's wrong with a string?

[AlbafaN]

I looked at your code to fast.... thought it did something i didnt want
