Thread: cin.get() pauses the program?

Hi,

I've run into a problem,

I have a switch-statement like this:

Code:

switch(chMenu)
{
 case 1:
  //Code
 break;
 
 case 2:
  //code
  cout << "Press a button to continue.." << endl;
  cin.get();
 break;
}

Shouldn't the cin.get(); pause the program until the uses presses a button?

Does anybody have a solution to the problem?
Anything but system("pause");

Its probably because you are using a cin>> before your cin.get(). cin>> leaves the '\n' in the input stream and your cin.get() picks up on it.
