debugger Mac OS

mzimmers

Currently, it's set to:

/Developer/Applications/Qt/Qt\ Creator.app/Contents/MacOS/../Resources/scripts/openTerminal.command

And, as I suspected, cin doesn't work.

I don't know if it can be considered a bug… I haven't used the Terminal for debugging for a long time.

OK, so let's say I wanted to create a "hello world" project that accepts an integer and prints "hello world" that many times...which project template should I use for this?

SGaist

Non-Qt project -> Plain C or Plain C++ application

I must not be asking the question the right way...I began by using a non-Qt project. That's when it popped up Xterm on me.

What do I need to do, to get the debugger to accept character-based input?

Thanks.

SGaist

Ok sorry, I get it now.

The thing is, it should work but there's something that seems to start maybe Xterm rather than Terminal. What happens if you call /Applications/Qt\ Creator.app/Contents/MacOS/../Resources/scripts/openTerminal.command from your terminal ?

mzimmers

I don't have anything in that path. My installation is in /Developer/Applications.

If I run:

/Developer/Applications/Qt/Qt\ Creator.app/Contents/MacOS/../Resources/scripts/openTerminal.command

Then I get a new terminal window, but it's under control of the shell, not my app.
