In CLion getch() is waiting for pressing of Enter button in this code
#include <iostream>
#include <conio.h>
using namespace std;
int main() {
char c = getch();
cout << c;
}
How can I fix it?

What is CLion using for a terminal? If it's a built in terminal, it might not follow the same rules as what `getch` expects from an old DOS terminal emulator. For example, it might buffer and not pass on the input until it sees a new line. – user4581301 Jun 07 '21 at 20:47

`getch()` waits for the user to type something. Why would you expect it NOT to wait for an `Enter`? – Remy Lebeau Jun 07 '21 at 20:56

@RemyLebeau `_getch` from `conio.h` doesn't wait for Enter. CLion seems have its own terminal that works differently though. – Aykhan Hagverdili Jun 07 '21 at 21:04

@user4581301 It's Command Prompt (cmd.exe) – Max Popov Jun 07 '21 at 21:05

If you execute it in command prompt, is it has the same behavior as CLion? – Louis Go Jun 08 '21 at 01:09

for me code blocks too used to wait like that. – Sreeraj Chundayil Jun 08 '21 at 10:53

I
ing hate how Visual Studio does code completion. If CLion is worse I can't imagine how bad it must be. – user4581301 Jun 08 '21 at 19:57 -
I've launched .exe file from the directory, and proper behavior was observed. Indeed, CLion affects the code in its own manere. So, I guess, I just should embrace that fact, or maybe there is some detour of this? – Max Popov Jun 09 '21 at 06:12
