_getche_nolock, _getwche_nolock

 

The new home for Visual Studio documentation is Visual Studio 2017 Documentation on docs.microsoft.com.

The latest version of this topic can be found at _getche_nolock, _getwche_nolock.

Gets a character from the console, with echo and without locking the thread.

Important

This API cannot be used in applications that execute in the Windows Runtime. For more information, see CRT functions not supported with /ZW.

Syntax

int _getche_nolock( void );  
wint_t _getwche_nolock( void );  

Return Value

Returns the character read. There is no error return.

Remarks

_getche_nolock and _getwche_nolock are identical to _getche and _getwche except that they not protected from interference by other threads. They might be faster because they do not incur the overhead of locking out other threads. Use these functions only in thread-safe contexts such as single-threaded applications or where the calling scope already handles thread isolation.
