As far as I can see, in DarkGDK (version 1) there is only a single dbInput() function. It takes no parameters and returns a char*.
If you want to take integer input you'll have to convert that string representation to a number. This is pretty easy with a stringstream:
std::stringstream ss;
ss << dbInput();
int myInt;
ss >> myInt;
If you want to print some prompt before the input like the DBP version allows you you can simply call dbPrint directly above your call to dbInput.
