Re: [Dev-C++] A very singular problem in Cpp

[Jonathan W. <jon...@gm...>]

Hi,
I'm not sure this is the exact problem, but the code you posted isn't the
correct way to use system("pause"):
It should be inside the 'main', like so

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
  cout<<"Hello World!\n";
  system("pause");
}

why dev-cpp didn't warn you loudly, I don't know...
Also, if writing twice the same program doesn't seem to yield the same
results, I'd try to make sure the program is getting recompiled properly
(try deleting all the .exe, .o, and Makefile.win, also, try make clean
[Rebuild all in dev-ccp I think])
