3boost-use-to-string
4===================
5
6This check finds conversion from integer type like ``int`` to ``std::string`` or
7``std::wstring`` using ``boost::lexical_cast``, and replace it with calls to
8``std::to_string`` and ``std::to_wstring``.
9
10It doesn't replace conversion from floating points despite the ``to_string``
11overloads, because it would change the behavior.

20    auto str = std::to_string(42);
21    auto wstr = std::to_wstring(2137LL);
