or cin.get();Code:#include <stdlib.h>

system("pause");

do a search
Instead of finding a function that works with your compiler you should get a compiler that works with all the functions you want to use. You would be supprised how many functions will not work with DevC++. There are many compilers that will work with a nice development environment. Now matter which free compiler you choose cEdit ( http://cedit.sourceforge.net ) will work well and I think it is actually nicer than DevC++'s environment. My prefered free compiler is Borland ( http://www.borland.com ). There is always the more expensive but versitile Visual Studio by Microsoft.
i dont need it for a system pause
i need it to actually wait for a specific keyboard input before proceeding, and without using enter
getch doesn't exist with DevC++, but getche does:
Code:#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout<<"Hit a key: ";
int key = getche();
cout<<"\nYou hit "<< static_cast<char>(key) <<endl;
cin.get();
}
Theres been tons of topics on these boards about incorporating getch() into dev, just run a search theres lots of information.
