I have installed the ncurses.h lib and started experimenting with the getch() function.When I built and run this code which seems alright to me at first, the console printed out a weird character: '�'(if it doesn't show and shows as a space here is a screen shot: https://prnt.sc/gbrp7b) The console starts spamming it but if I type a character, it shows up in the output but still the '�' spams. Here is the code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <ncurses.h>
using namespace std;
int main(){
char input;
while(true){
input = getch();
cout << "You entered : " << input << endl;
//break;
}
return 0;
}
So I thought of trying to use an if statement to try and stop it spamming but the code doesn't recognise the character:
It gives this error:
error: character too large for enclosing character literal type
For this code:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <ncurses.h>
using namespace std;
int main(){
char input;
while(true){
input = getch();
if(input!='�'){
cout << "YOu entered : " << input << endl;
}
}
return 0;
}
I am on OSX Sierra 10.12.5 and using eclipse Oxygen
You need to initialize ncurses with initscr() and close it with endwin() functions:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <ncurses.h>
using namespace std;
int main(){
char input;
initscr();
while (true) {
input = getch();
cout << "YOu entered : " << input << endl;
}
endwin();
return 0;
}

I want to do gui to factorio headless server by myself so i need to exec few bash scripts. I think i need function system() to that ?
I think I got problem with lib path. Please don't blame to wrong installed vcpkg. Paths is :
/opt/factorio/bin/x64/vcpkg/installed
/usr/include/c++/9/x86_64-redhat-linux
/usr/include/linux
/usr/include/c++/9/tr1
Command system() not found says Visual Studio.
system("pause"); is meant to be used only on Windows. It runs the Windows command-line "pause" program and waits for that to terminate before it continues execution of your program. That's why it's a bad practice to use it in your code, no matter if you are running your code on Windows or Linux.
Here is a better way you can achieve the same result:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
do {
cout << '\n' << "Press the Enter key to continue.";
} while (cin.get() != '\n');
return 0;
}
instead of:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main() {
system("pause");
return 0;
}
My code is a basic HelloWorld but fails to compile when I use cout<<endl.
I'm using Microsoft visual studio fresh download and created a console application for my first test project.
// Test1ConsoleApplication.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
//
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
//#include <ostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
string s = "hello world!!";
cout << "lets see: " << s << endl;
return 0;
}
It generates a
"C1001" at line 1.
Replacing "endl" with ""\n"" works though.
You don't need the precompiled header #include <stdafx.h> so you can safely get rid of it. Also get rid of using namespace std; because it pollutes the global namespace. Try something like this. There's no reason it shouldn't work.
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
using std::string;
using std::cout;
using std::endl;
int main()
{
string s = "hello world!!";
cout << "lets see: " << s << endl;
return 0;
}
In Visual Studio you can disable use of the precompiled header in the project settings.
I do not see what the problem is. Both options compile and execute for me.

// Test1ConsoleApplication.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
//
//#include "stdafx.h"
#include <string>
#include <iostream>
//#include <ostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
string s = "hello world!!";
cout << "lets see: " << s << endl;
cout << "lets see: " << s << "\n";
return 0;
}
So idk what was causing the error but it was fixed after pasting imports to the "stdafx.h" header file and then delete them...
I've compiled with success my first program with the Voce library but when I start the program, it stops right after. I can't say any word and it stops
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <voce.h>
#include <windows.h>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
voce::init("voce/lib", false, true, "voce/lib/grams", "digits");
while (voce::getRecognizerQueueSize() > 0)
{
std::string s = voce::popRecognizedString();
std::cout << "You said: " << s << std::endl;
}
system("PAUSE");
return 0;
}
I took this code on : http://voce.sourceforge.net/
Thank you for your help
I have a simple program running on Linux using g++ compiler:
#include <string>
#include <sstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
int main(int argc, char **argv){
fstream file;
string s;
file.open("sample/dates.dat", fstream::in);
if(!file.good())
return 0;
getline(file, s);
cout << s << "." << endl;
return 0;
}
Compiled with: g++ -o test test.cpp. When I run this, the fullstop is printed BEFORE the string s, not after. Does anybody know why this is happening? And is it easy to fix?
Thanks.
If there is a carriage return at the end of the string it will move the position of output to the beginning of the console line when printed.
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
std::cout << "some line\r" << "." << std::endl;
// ^^ carriage return
}
Is there a C++ equivalent to Python's time.sleep()?
Use boost::this_thread::sleep
// sleep for 5 seconds
boost::this_thread::sleep(boost::posix_time::seconds(5));
The following code will sleep for 10 milliseconds.
boost::this_thread::sleep(boost::posix_time::milliseconds(10))
Refer to boost::posix_time::time_duration for more ways to construct the duration.
I'm not aware of any portable function, but mainstream OSes have usleep for *nix and Sleep for Windows.
Please note that the code above was tested on Code::Blocks 12.11 and Visual Studio 2012
on Windows 7.
For forcing your programme stop or wait, you have several options :
sleep(unsigned int)
The value has to be a positive integer in millisecond.
That means that if you want your programme wait for 2 second, enter 2000.
Here's an example :
#include <iostream> //for using cout
#include <stdlib.h> //for using the function sleep
using namespace std; //for using cout
int main(void)
{
cout << "test" << endl;
sleep(5000); //make the programme waiting for 5 secondes
cout << "test" << endl;
sleep(2000); // wait for 2 secondes before closing
return 0;
}
If you wait too long, that probably means the parameter is in second. So change it like that :
sleep(5);
For those who get error message or problem using sleep try to replace it by _sleep or Sleep especially on Code::Bloks.
And if you still getting probleme, try to add of one this library on the biggining of the code.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <dos.h>
#include <windows.h>
system("PAUSE")
A simple "Hello world" programme on windows console application would probably close before you can see anything. That the case where you can use system("Pause").
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(void)
{
cout << "Hello world!" << endl;
system("PAUSE");
return 0;
}
If you get the message "error: 'system' was not declared in this scope" just add
the following line at the biggining of the code :
#include <cstdlib>
cin.ignore()
The same result can be reached by using cin.ignore() :
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(void)
{
cout << "Hello world!" << endl;
cin.ignore();
return 0;
}
cin.get()
example :
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main(void)
{
cout << "Hello world!" << endl;
cin.get();
return 0;
}
getch()
Just don't forget to add the library conio.h :
#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h> //for using the function getch()
using namespace std;
int main(void)
{
cout << "Hello world!" << endl;
getch();
return 0;
}
You can have message telling you to use _getch() insted of getch
