output box (cmd)

[Guest]

when a class is compiled and run,(simple hello world for example) the command
box flashes up with whatever the program did, then disapears! so never able
to see for more than a fraction of a second what program output was.
visual studio 2005 express.
any setting for keeping command prompt box open after program finishes
executing?

If you are talking about when playing via the debugger, then adding
Console.ReadLine() at the end might suffice - then press Return to exit the
console. There might be a prettier way, but it works (I'm the eternal
pragmatist when it comes to debugging...). You could also wrap in in an #if,
i.e.

// your "Main" function...
#if DEBUG
Console.ReadLine();
#endif
// end of your "Main" function...
