Getting Cursor Position

How do you find out the x & y coordinates of the cursor in the console window?

wherex() & wherey() in conio.h do that. But conio is not std.

I'm using VC++6, and it doesn't seem to like that. Does anyone know how else to get it?

Here's one way to do it:

PHP Code:

#include <windows.h>

int GetX()
{
    CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO TempInfo;
    COORD coord;
    HANDLE hConsole = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);
    GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo(hConsole,&TempInfo);
    coord = TempInfo.dwCursorPosition;
    return coord.X;
}
    
int GetY()
{
    CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO TempInfo;
    COORD coord;
    HANDLE hConsole = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);
    GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo(hConsole,&TempInfo);
    coord = TempInfo.dwCursorPosition;    
    return coord.Y;
}
