Getting Member String from Class C++ - c++

Question

I have a class that contain some game level settings.
class Stage {
private:
int level;
int stars;
std::string imgName;
public:
int getLevel(){ return level; };
void setLevel(int n){ level = n; };
int getStars(){ return stars; };
void setStars(int n){ stars = n; };
std::string getImgName(){ return imgName; };
void setImgName(std::string name){ imgName = name; };
};
Then in my program I set the info.
Stage* stagesArr = new Stage[3];
stagesArr[0].setLevel(0);
stagesArr[0].setStars(1200);
stagesArr[0].setImgName("stage0.png");
Then if I want to get this info the string is giving me an odd output.
CCLOG("Level: %i", stagesArr[0].getLevel());
CCLOG("Required stars: %i", stagesArr[0].getStars());
CCLOG("Image Name: %s", stagesArr[0].getImgName());
//Level:0
//Required stars: 1200
//Image Name: T%s //Or just random stuff.
What am I missing here?

Suspected that CCLOG() uses the same formatting rules like the <x>printf() function family does, you need to pass a const char* with the format specifier %s.
Your getImgName() returns a std::string value though, which isn't directly compatible with a const char*.
To achieve the latter, you should call the std::string::c_str() function:
CCLOG("Image Name: %s", stagesArr[0].getImgName().c_str());
Also you can improve your getter/setter functions specifying constness applicability more clear:
int getLevel() const { return level; }
// ^^^^^^
int getStars() const { return stars; }
// ^^^^^^
const std::string& getImgName() const { return imgName; }
// ^^^^^ // ^^^^^^
void setImgName(const std::string& name) { imgName = name; }
// ^^^^^
Note:
As a matter of style you can omit the get / set prefixes for getter/setter functions in c++, as the signatures are disambiguate enough:
int Level() const { return level; }
void Level(int n){ level = n; }
int Stars() const { return stars; }
void Stars(int n){ stars = n; }
const std::string& ImgName() const { return imgName; }
void ImgName(const std::string& name){ imgName = name; }
My personally preferred style is to use lower caps and disambiguate class member variables with a _ postfix:
class Stage {
private:
int level_;
int stars_;
std::string img_name_;
public:
int level() const { return level_; }
void level(int n) { level_ = n; }
int stars() const { return stars_; }
void stars(int n){ stars_ = n; }
const std::string& img_name() const { return img_name_; }
void img_name(const std::string& name) { img_name_ = name; };
};
