Thread: Simple Error = Difficult Problem

I have a new compiler along my Dev C++ it is called Mircrosoft Visual Beta 2005. It looks sl much more professional too!!

Anyway, This is my first working program, but when I debugged and ran it, it worked ok, but I got a unfamiluar warning up it said:

" 'getch' was declared deprecated :: see declaration of 'getch'

I do not understand what the warning is saying, as I delcared getch as part of conio.h

I use getch so I do not have to use system("pause");

here is the code:

Code:

#include "stdafx.h" // this header is for ALL USE
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <conio.h>

using namespace std;

string myname;


int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
	cout << "What is your name?" << endl;
	cout << "\n\n";
	cout << "My name is ";
	cin >> myname;
	cout << "So your name is " << myname;
	cout << "\n\n";
	getch();
	return 0;
}
