Hi,

Nothing in the sense you call 'direct'. You will have to use unmanaged code.

There is a new method in the Console class for this in .NET 2.0.

Hi all. After several searches using Google, I had just about given up on finding a way to clear the console Window. After spending the past week learning assembly language and writing a small boot loader for an OS, I came across code to clear the console. It works.

The Immediate Window is filled with debugging output from previous runs. Besides manually right clicking and clearing it, is there a programmatic way of doing this? Should I create and use a console window instead and put my debugging output there? What's the best way to show debugging information? Zytan

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
