dos window closing

[Guest_imported]

Howdy,
I just started using Borland C++, after getting used to Visual C++, and am having trouble. Whenever, I run a program, the dos window opens, and waits for input(cin), but immediately after revieving input closes the window. So there is no time to read the output. I don't know how to keep the window open. In Visual, the window remained open until the user closed it. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

A simple solution may be this way:

Before finishing the program insert a input statement and wait for a input like spacebar, cr....

Hello,

You could use the function getch() in the dos headerfile conio.h, which usually is what i do.

Example:

#include <conio.h>

int main(void)
{
...
...
getch();
}

Note that getch() doesn't work on the UNIX-platform.

You could also insert a pause, which you do like this:

#include <windows.h>

int main(void)
{
...
...
Pause(msec); // miliseconds!
}

Bye,
Emil
