unsigned char *teta = ....;
...
printf("data at %p
", teta); // prints 0xXXXXXXXX

How can I print variable address using iostreams? Is there a std::??? feature like std::hex to do this kind of conversion (address -> string), so std::cout << std::??? << teta << std::endl will print that address?

(no sprintf's, please ;))

Cast to void*:

unsigned char* teta = ....;
std::cout << "data at " << static_cast<void*>(teta) << "
";

iostreams generally assume you have a string with any char* pointer, but a void* pointer is just that - an address (simplified), so the iostreams can't do anything other than transforming that address into a string, and not the content of that address.
