Afraid Code::Blocks does not do that, sorry. You cannot type in the console.

The problem you're facing isn't related to Code::Blocks, it's related to the compiler it's using (MinGW by default), and it's because that function isn't standard and wasn't implemented in that compiler. I'mn't sure if Borland still provides conio.h, but you could try this one for MinGW.

And please, any programming related question that has nothing to do with Code::Blocks, ask it in an appropriate forum (I don't really mind, but it helps keeping these forums "clean").

What's this yop thing anyway?

Are you working in windows? If you are, the old console functions are not included in the standard headers and you have to use the windows console functions.

Like this: SetConsoleCursorPosition(hConsole, TL); <-- you need the handle to your console, use this at the start of your program to get it  HANDLE hStdOut = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE);

Here is a link to the win32 console functions.
Here is an article that might help

You will need to include windows.h to use these. Just a tip, do it like this to not included all the other windows stuff you won't need in the console

#define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN
#include "windows.h"

Hope that helped.

As for the 'yop'. I think he works for Homeland Security, this is how far they have gotten.

Hello,

What are your problems/errors? How are you installing C::B?

If you wish, Ubuntu .deb package of C::B are proposed in the Nightly Builds sub-forum. Just download the latest and install it.

Best wishes,
Michael

RC2 is a bit old . I have just upload the .deb package of rev2285 on my File Hosting (see my signature). Before installing it, I would advice you to uninstall RC2 and to check if all the libraries .so of RC2 have been deleted. Then you can install the rev2285.

Best wishes,
Michael

You should download the .DevPack from Sourceforge. If you have never used the DevPack plugin, you should start it, select a download directory for the packages (chose carefully, because if you want to change it, then you will have to modify its path in default.conf of C::B). When you have your directory, you copy there the conio .DevPack. After you start the plugin, you select unter "Filtering" the option "Downloaded, but not installed" and you chose in "Update server" an option. It should find your conio .DevPack that can be installed by clicking it with the right button of the mouse.

Best wishes,
Michael
