is this possible?

[xeimaster]

i kind of in need of help

i am trying to make a simple log in system without the use of database or whatever it is called.

my only concern is this

cout<<"enter password:";
cin>>pass;

how would i be able to make the characters appear as **** rather than the actual character that i would type as i am typing my password in CIN?

or is it even possible?

thnx in advance

[xeimaster]

sorry i think i posted in the wrong section

but anyways was my question possible?

It is not possible using the standard C++ library alone.

It is possible using platform specific APIs or third-party libraries.

oh i see then @jlborges
if im to use 3rd party library how would i enter the syntax? can you give me 1? and how would i use those libraries? XD

I changed the text and background color to the same color as an alternative.
