Hi,
Does anyone know if it's possible to write either a getch()
(preferably Borland-style) or getche() function in C++ (I've posted
the C equivalent of this question to CLC) without it being
platform-dependent or otherwise non-standard?
If not, can someone suggest a good alternative for situations where
you require the user to "press any key to continue" or "press Enter to
continue" - with getch(), the mistakes that a user can make with
getchar() and the like just don't occur.
Thanks,
James McLaughlin

"Hit any key to continue" is not doable in Standard C++.
"Hit Enter to continue" is doable:
// #includes and surrounding code redacted
std::cout << "Press <Enter> to continue: ";
std::string trash;
std::getline(st d::cin, trash);
Belated thanks to both of you,
James McLaughlin.

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
