Hey,
Sorry if this is a really stupid question - I'm new to C++.

I have a program like this:

std::string str;
...
...
...
char buffer[4];

The variable buffer has been filled with four characters.
How do I now make str equal to buffer?
ie I have "ABCD" in buffer and I would like "ABCD" in str.

Thanks
Connell
