the inferior stopped because it received a signal from the Operating System. Signal name : SIGSTOP Signal meaning : Stopped (signal)

Does stop mean Stop? In this case Yes. I am trying to run a simple console application through debug and I get the error every time.

I am superior to the inferior, surely I can sort this bug out one day ?

Does your application work if you don't debug it?

Lineaxe

Heh, yup it works perfectly. It is designed to be a console module that I can use as a patch that I can update when needed by the main program. It works with the program, I just run into problems when I go to using debug.
One day I would like to find a bug with a nice easy name to digest....

@Lineaxe Hi, have you fixed this issue, I got the same one, my code only "cout<<"hello world!"; it can be run, but once I'm in debug mode, the issue is happen.

jsulm

@Harkin Can you show your code?
Your app is working in release mode but not in debug?
Do you have stack trace after crash?

@Harkin , @jsulm
I don't think there is going to be a "crash" here :) It would be great if the OP/questioner stated which OS he is under when reporting this (I would if I were posting), but there you are....

Assuming this is Linux, SIGSTOP is generated by pressing Ctrl+S at the keyboard. It pauses the program from any further attempt to output anything to the terminal. It is waiting for you to press Ctrl+Q, SIGCONT, at which point output will continue. It's for old-fashioned flow control (don't I remember this in the old terminal days!). I'm a bit hazy about this, but it may also be produced if you output to the console a binary file/something which happens to contain a 0x13 byte.

So, I don't know how this relates to debug mode --- except, probably, if you press Ctrl+S while in the debugger it might report it this way. What debugger do you use? gdb has, IIRC, ignore ... to ignore signals....

@Aleksey_K
...which is indeed where I suggested telling the debugger to ignore certain signals...
