You will need to build your own functions. Copy and paste this to a file to back it up.

Code:

#include <string>
#include <climits>

using namespace std;

void reset_istream( )
{
   //Reset failstate just in case.
  cin.clear();
   cin.ignore(numeric_limits<streamsize>::max(), '\n');
}

//--------------------------------------------------- void wait_for_enter()
{
  cout << "press <enter> to continue...\n";
  // Reset failstate, just in case.
  cin.clear();
  string line;
  getline( cin, line);
}

You can see in this thread:

how to use it.
