What are the differences between a "Console Application" and a MS-DOS program?
When I go into Visual C++ and create a Cpp source file and run it, it runs in a window that kind of looks like an MS-DOS window, but when I go to close it, it does not give me the message "Windows cannot automatically shut down this program automatically...Do you wish to terminate the program and lose any unsaved information?"
However when I run the same program in Borland C++ (5.5 I believe) it runs it in a MS-DOS window and it DOES give me the "Windows cannot automatically shut down this program automatically...Do you wish to terminate the program and lose any unsaved information?"
Is Visual C++ really running it in a Console window?
Is Borland C++ really running it in a MS DOS window?
Is there even a difference?
Thx,
