I've used the command 'pause' in batch files which works ok but I guess it's applied dirrently in c++.
Using Dev C++ 4.0 and the following is my code
  1. #include<iostream>
  2. #include<iomanip>
  3. #include<cstdlib>
  4. #include<string>
  5. main(){
  6. do{
  7. display menu
  8. cin>>getInput
  9. if{
  10. }
  11. else if{
  12. }
  13. else{
  14. cout<<'nt'<<mnuSelect<<' is not a valid menu'
  15. <<' selection'
  16. <<'ntHit ENTER to return to menu and try again';
  17. system('cls');
  18. pause;
  19. }
  20. }while(mnuSelect != 'x' && mnuSelect != 'X');
  21. return 0;
  22. }
I keep getting the following error whenever I use the pause;
c:test.cpp: In function `int main()':
c:test.cpp: lineNum: `pause' undeclared (first use this function)
c:test.cpp: lineNum: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
c:test.cpp: lineNum: for each function it appears in.)
For ANY false input, my result is to pause with error MSG and ask user to press enter which will return to main to re-enter valid menu selection.
How do I get pause working?
Thanks to all. Await reply

How To Pause In C

Traktor pro 2 tips. Nov 15, 2005  1) Don't want to use system(3) just to pause the program: create a pause function. Why is it a bad idea to use system to pause a program? Waiting for a keystroke from a user is hardly performance-intensive. No, but it is extremely wasteful of system resources when you compare the cost of starting a whole new program to wait for a keypress. My system pause function in this program is not read at the end of the program so i can't see the results. // This program copies the contents of one file // to another file.

:Is there something like system('PAUSE') for linux?
As far as this newsgroup is concerned, the exact replacement is
system('PAUSE');
That's because as far as this newsgroup is concerned, PAUSE has
an unidentified system-dependant function. If the functionality of
PAUSE were to be described, then a Unix or Linux newsgroup would be
able to tell you what the nearest Linux equivilent would be.
On some systems, PAUSE means 'suspend CPU activity on the system until
there is an interrupt'. On others, it means 'suspend the active process
for 1 second'. On others, it means 'flush any pending output and
wait until a key is pressed and then continue (without waiting for
a newline.) On others, the newline is required. On others, it means
'print the error message associated with not finding a named program
or command'. On others it means 'look for an executable program
named PAUSE in the current directory and execute it, with whatever
consequences that has.' Others yet it would mean 'look for an
executable program named PAUSE in the currently defined list of
program locations, and execute it, with whatever condequences that has.'
Possibly the most common meaning, though, is 'Play a recording
of your voice telling the dog to get his paws off of the furniture.'
If that's the one you were looking for, see section 93.11 of the
Linux FAQ, which discusses the various ways of getting high-fidelity
playback of His Master's Voice on various kinds of sound cards
and Midi Synthesizers.
