C++ console application always on top? [closed]

Answer 1

The link in OP post refers to Windows.

First you need to obtain a handle for your console window: https://support.microsoft.com/kb/124103

Or even better and modern: GetConsoleWindow way to get that console handle.

Then you need to do quite a simple trick:

::SetWindowPos(hwndMyWnd, HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, 0, 0, SWP_DRAWFRAME | SWP_NOMOVE | SWP_NOSIZE | SWP_SHOWWINDOW);
::ShowWindow(hwndMyWnd, SW_NORMAL);
