Converting CLI array to std::string without for-cycle -

i want convert array<unsigned char>^ std::string. possible conversion without iterating on array , assigning each character in string?

this "best" solution (and don't assigning in for-cycle):

std::string cliarray2string(array<unsigned char>^ asource) {     std::string strresult("");     if (asource != nullptr)     {         int ilength = asource->getlength(0);         strresult.reserve(ilength + 1);         (int = 0; < ilength; i++)             strresult[i] = asource[i];     }     return strresult; } 

thanks opinions.

you can use string range constructor, , pin managed array.

pin_ptr<unsigned char> p = &asource[0]; unsigned char *unmanagedp = p; std::string str(unmanagedp , unmanagedp + asource->getlength(0)); 

or sequence constructor:

std::string str(unmanagedp , asource->getlength(0));
