How to transfer int to char *

[Evushka]

Hello, everybody,
In my code I need to transfer int to char *;

Ex:

int i=2345;

char *ptr,str[4];
ptr=str;

ptr=(char *)&i; /* ;-((( doesn't work*/

printf("ptr is %d",*ptr); /*I would like to see it on screen later*/

Waiting your reply,
and thanks for any help

try this:

int main()
{
int i=2345;

char *ptr,str[4];
ptr=str;
ptr=(char *)i;
printf("ptr is %d",ptr); 

return 0;
}

/btq

int i=2345;

char *ptr;

ptr=(char *)&i; /* ;-((( doesn't work*/

printf("ptr is %d\n",*(int *) ptr); /*I would like to see it on screen later*/

Or if you want to convert an int into a string, one way is sprintf().

int i=2345;
char str[12];

sprintf(str,"%d",i);
printf("str is %s\n",str);

of course you can do that, but if your goal is to print pointer addresses with printf() you should use the %p conversion specifier.

edit: on second thought, it is unclear exactly what you want to accomplish here, so only do the above if that is what you want to do
