You don't need that to run windows apps on linux if your system is set up correctly (binfmt-support).
wine (or wineserver should start automagically and (in most cases) seamless.
At least if I configure it as console app (also for gui apps) it works fine.

Tested on debian with a simple console project and a wxWidgets project with a library and a main (gui-)app, both compiled with MinGW32 cross-compiler, and wxWidgets cross-libs for the second.

No, because it is not a terminal emulator, but shell emulator or something like that...

You can use:

Code

#ifndef _WIN32
system("clear");
#else
system("cls");
#endif

Thanks...but not work....is there another way..to setting up code blocks to run wine dos console when i try to run the program...the situation is when i run exe file in debug folder it will open wine dos console...so the system cls will work...i had try alias cls='clear'..but also not work..or there are option to install ms-dos console in ubuntu..that i can use it to run my program from code blocks..thanks...
