kbhit equivalent for Windows CE

Question

I know this question has been asked before and I have tried searching on Google but I don't seem to be able to find a decent answer to this.

I want a console application I am writing to exit when a user presses a button. It's written in C++ and will be deployed on Windows CE6.

Currently the same code, on XP, uses this to perform actions until the keyboard is hit

//App entry
while (!_kbhit()) { /* Awesome code goes here */ }
//App exits here

Can anyone help me :)

Answer 1

Have you tried getchar() ?

It may be necessary to direct standard input/output to the console using SetStdioPathW() .
