How to move the control to DOS after the program execution?

[sanjeevani]

hi guyz,

My program produces output on the DOS window and an in an excel sheet. the input for my program is a set os images mentioned in a text file. it produces a set of values for each image. after running on all the images and obtaining the results,i need to press CTRL+c to kill it so that i can write a new command on command line.

My main pgm is as shown below...it uses another function multipledot. the printing of values in DOS window is a part of multipledot function. I want the control back to the DOS once the program is executed.

int main()
{
 
    int a,b;
        cout << "Enter threshold value between 0 and 255 : ";
               cin >> a;
    cout << "Enter window size : ";
                 cin >> b;    
    std::string tempStr;
    std::vector<std::string> files;
    std::fstream f,f1;
    f1.open("files1.xls", std::ios::out | std::ios::app);
    f1<<"Threshold"<<"\t"<<"Windowsize"<<"\t"<<"filename"<<"\t"<<"imagesize"<<"\t"<<"CentroidPoint.x"<<"\t"<<"CentroidPoint.y"<<std::endl;
    f.open("files.txt", std::ios::in);    
    if(!f.is_open())
    {
        /*Then cry*/
        cout<<"Cry"<<endl;
        return 0;
    }
    while(!f.eof())
    {
        f>>tempStr;
        files.push_back(tempStr);
    }
    MultipleDotMain(files,b,a);
    f.close();
 
    cin.get();
    return 1;
}
 

thanks,

Maybe removing cin.get() ? :)
