convert int to wstring

Question

I want to convert an integer value (int) to std::wstring. What is the best way to do this? I'm developing for windows phone so I would rather avoid using external libraries (such as boost::lexical_cast). I'm looking for something simple, preferably one line of code that just assigns the int to the wstring.

Any help would be appreciated.

Are you looking for std::to_wstring

std::wstring to_wstring( int value ); (since C++11)

Converts a signed decimal integer to a wide string with the same content as what std::swprintf(buf, sz, L"%d", value) would produce for sufficiently large buf.

Exactly what I'm looking for. The answer couldn't be better. I didn't even know this was available. Nothing showed up when I googled my question.

no wonder the coding world is so messed up, half implemented standards shakes head in disgust at the IT industry

 size_t myInteger = 10; std::wostringstream myStringStream; myStringStream<< L"myText" << myInteger; std::wstring concatenatedStr = myStringStream.str();

Conacatenating number to wstring.
