Order Correction

#include <iostream.h>
#include <conio.h>

void CPost();

int main()
{
CPost();
getch();
return 0;
}

void CPost()
{
cout<< "Hello\n";
}

I have the following code. I have put CPost to its
own function in attempt to answer my own
question, it did not work, but I post it this way
anyway. My question is how do I force it to
Cout then GetCH. Currently it does GetCH then
Cout, which ... messes things up, and prevents
me from continuing on.

Use cin to read the characters.

cout & cin are tied together, so that things will work in order.

If you mix c-library methods with c++ streams, there there is guarantee on the order.

It works as:

This deals with the namespace problem pointed out by jaimie for the cout and changes your getch to getChar() from the C standard library

#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>

void CPost();

int main()
{
CPost();
getchar();
return 0;
}

void CPost()
{
std::cout<< "Hello\n";
}

sorry getchar() not getChar()

I know I can use Cin but, I wanted to avoid that.
However, adding the namespace worked out
great, thanks jaime.

twobitadder,

With <iostream> you should really use:

#include <cstdio>
