sleep()

[john111111]

does C++ has this function header for this :

sleep()?

I really need help

I'm on Unix , and if I include < unistd.h >
i can use sleep(int) where int is how many seconds to sleep.

Its <windows.h>, and make sure you spell it Sleep(int), note the Uppercase S, and this has been posted before.

#include <windows.h>

void Sleep   
(
  DWORD dwMilliseconds
);

int main()
{
sleep(int);
}

thank you so much


I see someone uses it , but mis-spelling, then it doesn't work.

one more question,

is there a delay() for function header and gotoxy(int,int)?

i have a headage homework.. newbee though,
that I have to write a c++ program to scroll a user input message accross screen (like java does), and make it blinking..

It is fun and does headage after all, then I need to find resource and help.

If you use DEV-C++ to compile clrscr(); will help to make it flash, use conio.c. But if you use MSVC++ use cout << endl; just before using SYSTEM("CLS"); as it clears the buffer. Windows.h for this one. Should help you with most of it. Then you just have to place it in an appropriate loop.
