My version of A7 doesn't support engine_getvarinfo(). It does recognize engine_getvar() though. I tried:
Code:
long type;
STRING* varToString = engine_getvar(myVar,&type);


...but the string pointer does not contain a string.

I'm wondering if this is what I want though. Just to be sure that you understand.
I want to change the 4 in var myVar = 4; to a string, so that I can show it on screen. When the variable changes, it will update on screen at runtime.

Isn't there some simple code like str(myVar), as found in python, that converts the variable to a string?
