C++ Advance Input Problem
Author : mostafa Post Date : 2006-03-17 13:16 Posts : 6	Hello, I'm a new user of your site. I downloaded all the tutorial about C++/Win32/OpenGL/GLUT and i started reading and implementing them with my little knowledge of programming. I created a program which consist of many function.Each function is the corresponding tutorial code with my modification.I also add a Text-based user interface to it but it interferes with the function of advanced input tutorial. I don't know what to do. Please help me. I should mention that I use Visual Studio 2005(Pro). http://authors.aspalliance.com/aylar/ViewPasteCode.aspx?PasteCodeID=5441 >>>This is the link to my source code.

I don't know why this happens. Thanks.

Instead of calling a function such as scanf, one should rather use the scanf_s secure equivalent. You can also simply place the following at the top of your source file : #define _CRT_SECURE_NO_DEPRECATE which will just tell the compiler not to insist that secure functions be used. Please let me know if this helps. Regards, Grant

But my main problem is this code: void advanced_input() { char names[100]; cout << "Type name(s) with space between each name." << endl; cout << "Name(s):"; cin.getline(names, 100); cout << "Thank you " << names << endl; system("pause"); } if you compile this code alone(without using it in that switch/case statement,it works fine but if you use it through that code it doesn't work.It return and does not wait for input. This is my main problem. Thanks, Mostafa Moradian.

Try adding the following to the beginning of the advanced_input function : cin.seekg(0,ios::beg); cin.clear(); This will move to the beginning of the input stream and clear the buffer so that C++ doesn't think that you have already entered data. Please let me know if this helps. Regards, Grant
