Question and Answer Database FAQ632C.txt Myterious closing DOS boxes. Category :IDE Platform :Win95/NT Product : BC++4.5x BC++5.x C++Builder1.0 C++Builder3.x Question: When I run my Dos program from within the IDE, the program flashes up really quick and than goes away. It is very difficult to see my output. What can I do? Answer: Windows automatically closes spawned DOS apps when they finish execution. Here are two ways to get around this: 1) Put a line in you program (ie: getchar()) to stop the execution of the program untill you enter input. 2) run your program from a DOS box. 7/2/98 10:32:32 AM
