Hi. This is kindof offtopic.

I learned about a class `ostringstream' that allows sending ints and
floats into a string. I then tried finding it in headers, but only
found `strstream'. I proceded to use it, but then I was pointed out
that strstream::str() returns `* char', and therefore is liable to
cause memory leaks. Whereas ostringstrea::str() would return a
`string'.

I greped around in /usr/include directories on my FreeBSD box, my
Linux box, and my school's Solaris installation, and couldn't find any
reference to ostringstream.

Does this class or its equivallent exist somewhere?

Thanks!
