_getche() will get a character from the console with echo, i.e. if the user presses, for example, 'h', then 'h' will be printed to the screen. If you want to get a character from the console without echo, use _getch() (the no 'e' at the end). Incidently, these functions are defined in conio.h.
#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
int main()
{
...
std::cout << "Press any key to exit, Sir ...\n";
_getch();
return 0;
}

Do you mean win32 application that you need to pause automaticly?
use the function
sleep( MS ); where MS is the time to make the application sleep in ms.
Judging from his previous posts and the fact that he mentioned "press any key to continue", I should think he meant Win32 Console Application. If this is the case, the code I suggested in my previous post should work.

i tried the _getch() but it said "implicit declaration of function ''int_getch(...)''"
You need to include the standard C input library I believe...

No,
getch()/_getch() requires conio.h.quote:Original post by Android_s
Umm, what's the difference of _getch() and getch() ?
getch()/_getch() is not part of the ANSI standard, and so it might or might not be supported on every compiler. I believe _getch() does pretty much exactly the same thing as getch(), yet it is just Microsoft's conio.h support. I found, though, that I could use both getch() and _getch() with my Microsoft compiler. [ Google || Start Here || ACCU || MSDN || STL || GameCoding || BarrysWorld || E-Mail Me ]
