Are there ready-made solutions in C++ for implementing the toString method?

Question

C++ / C#

Actually, the whole question is in the title: is there a tool in C ++ that allows you to perform something similar to toString on class objects?

Answer 1

What you call toString is, in C++ terminology , a type conversion operator to a string representation.
For your class X, you describe:
or (with certain difficulties):
And then in the code you use:
cout << X;

Answer 2

#include <string>
....
to_string(); есть уже с с++11.

Or are you talking about something else? ))

Answer 3

There is. It's called OOP. You inherit all classes from the Object base class, you overload ToString for all of them, and then return what you need.
