I am having issues with these function:



It just won't compile with the added dbStr, I'm probably mis-using it, but all I want to do is print the string "Player 1 Score: ", and the player score which is an int variable named p1_score.

What's up?

You can't combine strings with +'s. This is C++.

I can't see any function in that header that will convert an int to a string.

Just use sprintf():

char buffer[256];
sprintf(buffer,"Player 1 Score: %d",p1_score);
dbText( 10, 5, buffer);
