 # String conversions
 
 Catch needs to be able to convert types you use in assertions and logging expressions into strings (for logging and reporting purposes).
-Most built-in or std types are supported out of the box but there are three ways that you can tell Catch how to convert your own types (or other, third-party types) into strings.

 ## operator << overload for std::ostream
 
@@ -16,42 +16,19 @@ std::ostream& operator << ( std::ostream& os, T const& value ) {
 
 (where ```T``` is your type and ```convertMyTypeToString``` is where you'll write whatever code is necessary to make your type printable - it doesn't have to be in another function).
 
-You should put this function in the same namespace as your type.
-
-Alternatively you may prefer to write it as a member function:
-
-```
-std::ostream& T::operator << ( std::ostream& os ) const {
-	os << convertMyTypeToString( *this );
-	return os;
-}
-```
-
-## Catch::toString overload
-
-If you don't want to provide an ```operator <<``` overload, or you want to convert your type differently for testing purposes, you can provide an overload for ```Catch::toString()``` for your type.
-
-```
-namespace Catch {
-	std::string toString( T const& value ) {
-		return convertMyTypeToString( value );
-	}
-}
-```
-
-Again ```T``` is your type and ```convertMyTypeToString``` is where you'll write whatever code is necessary to make your type printable. Note that the function must be in the Catch namespace, which itself must be in the global namespace.
+You should put this function in the same namespace as your type and have it declared before including Catch's header.
 
 ## Catch::StringMaker<T> specialisation
-
-There are some cases where overloading toString does not work as expected. Specialising StringMaker<T> gives you more precise, and reliable, control - but at the cost of slightly more code and complexity:
+If you don't want to provide an ```operator <<``` overload, or you want to convert your type differently for testing purposes, you can provide a specialization for `Catch::StringMaker<T>`:
 
 ```
 namespace Catch {
-	template<> struct StringMaker<T> {
-    	static std::string convert( T const& value ) {
-        	return convertMyTypeToString( value ); 
-        } 
-    }; 
+	template<>
+    struct StringMaker<T> {
+    	std::string operator()( T const& value ) {
+        	return convertMyTypeToString( value );
+        }
+    };
 }
