Is there any code for display color screen in C++

I want to give better screen show. Therefore I want to know whether
any formula/code do exit to depict color screen in c++.

 

There is no standard C/C++ library for that. What compiler are you using? What target are you developing for? console, gui?

 

QUOTE Sir, I use C++ compiler. I don't have any target for developing. Also I have no
idea about gui(Graphic User Interface).UNQUOTE

Hello,

By compiler, I mean which company makes the one that you are using? Borland, Microsoft, etc. For example, Borland's older compilers like Turbo C, Borland CPP have the function textbackground.

There's a bit of an issue when using older compilers in a Windows environment for stuff like getch, background color, etc... the "console" is in fact a window that emulates the old text mode. The program may have goofy behavior when non-standard functions are used.

For more modern compilers, you'll probably need to use the API console functions throughout as cout, I think, will default to having gray text on a black background no matter how many times the background / foreground colors are changed. Maybe someone else knows for certain.

Here's a crude attempt using API functions.

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <windows.h>

int main() {

     TCHAR out_text[] = "Hello World!";
     COORD init_coord = { 0 ,  0 }, /* start at upper left corner   */
	       place_at =   { 40, 12 }; /* location to display out_text */
     DWORD ret;
     CONSOLE_SCREEN_BUFFER_INFO cbuf; // console window paramters
     HANDLE hnd_out = GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE); // get handle for console output

     GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo(hnd_out, &cbuf); // call function to retrieve parameters
                                                 // needed to "fill the screen"

	 // blue background and yellow text
     FillConsoleOutputAttribute(hnd_out,
	                        FOREGROUND_GREEN | FOREGROUND_RED | FOREGROUND_INTENSITY | BACKGROUND_BLUE,
                                cbuf.dwSize.X * cbuf.dwSize.Y, init_coord, &ret);

     WriteConsoleOutputCharacter(hnd_out, out_text, sizeof out_text, place_at, &ret);

     return 0;
}

Hope that helps
