[Dev-C++] Portable End-of-Line

[David M. <ci...@ya...>]

Is there a portable way of finding out the end-of line
sequence for the
current operating system? I hope to make my program
portable to both Win +
*NIX and would like something more (what word could go
here?) than:

#ifdef WIN32
  const char DIR_SEP = '\\';
  const char eoln[]  = "\n";
#else
  const char DIR_SEP = '/';
  const char eoln[]  = "\n\r";
#endif

Same applies to the directory separator. Is there a way I
can detect which
one is used? As I said portability is of utmost importance
so it must be C++
ANSI compliant (my program uses classes so it cant be a C
compliant program.
