conio.h-graphics.h in Dev _C++

graphics.h dev c++

Hi everyone!I am a classical newbie.I am programming in typical ANSI C and i am using the Dev -C++. I'd like to ask where i can find those two libraries (conio.h,graphics.h), how to install them and if you could tell me some more information about how they work or can be used.

Why can't I use conio.h functions like clrsrc()?
Because conio.h is not part of the C standard. It is a Borland extension, and works only with Borland compilers (and perhaps some other commercial compilers). Dev-C++ uses GCC, the GNU Compiler Collection, as it's compiler. GCC is originally a UNIX compiler, and aims for portability and standards-compliance.

If really can't live without them, you can use Borland functions this way:
Include conio.h to your source, and add C:\Dev-C++\Lib\conio.o to "Linker Options" in Project Options (where C:\Dev-C++ is where you installed Dev-C++).
Please note that conio support is far from perfect. I only wrote it very quickly.
