How do you clear the screen in Dev C plus plus compiler? Unanswered Questions. Why Barbara Spear Webster given a 'in memory of' on Murder She Wrote.

C / C Forums on Bytes. How do i clear the screen using dev c. Is there a built in function, if so, what header function should i use. Please note, thi is dev c. Assuming that you are in protected mode and not using the BIOS to write text to screen, you will have write directly to 'video' memory. This is quite easy. The text screen video memory for colour monitors resides at 0xB8000, and for monochrome monitors it is at address 0xB0000 (see Detecting Colour and Monochrome Monitors for more information). Dev C used the MICGW compiler while Turbo C uses Borland compiler. Hence due to this, certain inbuilt functions will not work in Dev C. Clrscr is one such function.
Definition
Clears the console buffer and corresponding console window of display information.
Exceptions
An I/O error occurred.

Examples
The following example uses the Clear method to clear the console before it executes a loop, prompts the user to select a foreground and background color and to enter a string to display. If the user chooses not to exit the program, the console's original foreground and background colors are restored and the Clear method is called again before re-executing the loop.

The example relies on a
GetKeyPress
method to validate the user's selection of a foreground and background color.This example demonstrates the CursorLeft and CursorTop properties, and the SetCursorPosition and Clear methods. The example positions the cursor, which determines where the next write will occur, to draw a 5 character by 5 character rectangle using a combination of '+', '|', and '-' strings. Note that the rectangle could be drawn with fewer steps using a combination of other strings.
How To Clear Screen In Dev C++
Remarks
Using the Clear method is equivalent invoking the MS-DOS
cls
command in the command prompt window. When the Clear method is called, the cursor automatically scrolls to the top-left corner of the window and the contents of the screen buffer are set to blanks using the current foreground background colors.Note
Attempting to call the Clear method when a console application's output is redirected to a file throws a IOException. To prevent this, always wrap a call to the Clear method in a
try
…catch
block.Applies to
@ Moschops: What jumper007 is seeing is that wxDev-C++ does not open your application inside of a shell that it made like Borland and Code::Blocks do. It allows the shell that the operating system is running to close after your application is finished running, which I personally prefer because it means that my IDE is not likely to cause problems when I go to test a program. Be careful with that bit about .h.hpp and .cpp files being the same, this is largely dependent on what linker you are using. Generally speaking header files are meant to be included, as in tell the compiler to write the contents of this file here, in line with the rest of the file below, before compiling the rest of this code. While .cpp files are meant to be linked to and compiled as stand alone pieces of the same executable. I'm sorry because I know I'm being pedantic, but for me it's these little things that are the toughest to 'unlearn' as I progress. I completley agree with your last statement a dev environment should never dictate to it's user what they can and can't do.
@ jumper007: I know, doesn't it stink when your school can't afford up to date software? I don't know about you but I nearley had to take out a second mortgage to get wxDev-C++, then having to get MingW! It's amazing anyone can afford this hobby! </sarcasm>
