Readkey in Java

Question

I am new to Java ... is there a similar method to the ReadKey() in C# to avoid that a console application closes?

thanks

Answer 1

YOu can also use System.in.read(), if you are ok with just 'Enter' key being your exit key.

Answer 2

One way to do it:

BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
br.readLine();

there are definitely shorter ones, but I think this one's convenient, because it can easily be extended.
