How do I convert the value of a PHP variable to string?
I was looking for something better than concatenating with an empty string:
$myText = $myVar . '';
Like the ToString()
method in Java or .NET.

You can use the casting operators:
$myText = (string)$myVar;
There are more details for string casting and conversion in the Strings section of the PHP manual, including special handling for booleans and nulls.
