readout

Expand Post »

Hello people
I have jusrt recently started to study C/C++ and I am using Borland 5.02. I am having a problem examining my outputs. when I run a successfully compiled program the Dos window that I should read my print from flashes on then flashes off

and I do not get the time to examine the results. Can any body tell me how to adjust the settings in order to read it.
Thanks

Re: readout

Put a std::cin.get() (C++) or : getchar() (C) right before the return 0; in main().

C++ Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
int main(){
   // do stuff
   std::cin.get();
   return 0;
}
int main(){
   // do stuff
   std::cin.get();
   return 0;
}

Thank you for the reply, but it does not seem to make any sense.
Is it all there? Is it relavent to the post about my DOS window not staying open to examine results
cheers

I think I have it. If I put
int ch;
ch = getc(stdin)
the window stays open
