keyboard(is it possible?)

what should i do to make my program recognise that im hiting the ESC key of the keyboard or any other key ty ;)

provide some useful information. Like compiler, operating system, etc

windows, compiler dev-c++

Which version of windows, console or windowed app?

Don't just answer my questions, think about what might be important information and give it up. But I'd search the board for how to read function keys

GetAsyncKeyState(VK_ESCAPE);

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...nckeystate.asp

test the return value of the keyboard input function for ESC key.

Code:

---

const int ESC = 27;
int c = cin.get();
if( c == ESC)
{
  // do something
}

---

not what i had in mind for me i would do this

Code:

---

#inlcude <conio>
..
int menu;
menu=getch();
switch (menu)
{
          case(27);
          {
            ...
          }
}

Kenny is on the right track. I create a example program like this for another person recently, feel free to use it and learn from it. It uses CONIO.H. There is also a way to do this similarly with WINDOWS.H

If you wanted C code then you should have posted the question on the C board, not the C++ board. :rolleyes:
