I'm using Eclipse CDT with Cygwin. I have a basic Hello World program that compiles with Eclipse. When I launch the .exe manually, it works fine.
When I hit the debug button in Eclipse, it runs until the first cin. I type a response, hit enter, and nothing happens. I can keep entering responses, and it never gets past that line.
If I then switch to the gdb console and type anything and hit enter, it finally returns from the cin call with the first string I entered, and runs until the next prompt, where the program terminates.
Before, it seemed like it was doing strange things like reading strings from the gdb console.
If I put
set new-console on
in the GDB Command File (under Debug Configurations -> Debugger), it opens a new console and works perfectly. I'm just curious as to what I am doing that causes the other issues since this workaround isn't ideal.
