Convert a number to a string with specified length in C++

or using the stringstreams:

#include <sstream>
#include <iomanip>

std::stringstream ss;
ss << std::setw(10) << std::setfill('0') << i;
std::string s = ss.str();

I compiled the information I found on arachnoid.com because I like the type-safe way of iostreams more. Besides, you can equally use this code on any other output stream.
