Qt console: Get text from text file as a console input parameter
-

I think you are asking: "Can I have stdin redirected when I start to debug my program?". And, to make it even harder, you want it to come from the output of a process, not just from a file?I believe you will struggle with this. I'm not even sure I can see how to do that for
gdb
. You say Windows, but give no indication while debugger you are using.Until someone answers better, I would say "no" to you. But I shall read with interest if someone says it can be done.
You can sett command-line arguments. I don't know if it would allow redirection via
< file.txt
--- I would expect it does not (since the shell is what does that). Even if it does, that won't allow for input-from-a-command-pipe.From your example, it's just equivalent to setting stdin to read from file
file.txt
. If you do not get a satisfactory solutuon, would you consider changing your program's command-line arguments (even if only for debugging) to allow e.g.myapp -i file.txt
? It would sure me a lot simpler/quicker? :)
