What's wrong with:

,----
| #include <iostream>
| #include <sstream>
| #include <string>
|
| int main (int argc, char *argv[])
| {
|   std::ostringstream os;
|   int i = 42;
|
|   os << "i=" << i;
|   std::string s = os.str();
|
|   std::cout << s << std::endl;
| }
`----

Are you just trying to make your code as terse as possible?  Why would
you want to create a string from an ostringstream without having to
use a named ostringstream?
