Console output isn't shown

[HJarausch]

On some Windows (XP and 7) machines (version 4.1.5770), a console project doesn't show standard output, i.e.

std::cout << "Hello World\n";

doesn't display this in the console window.
The program compiles and links just fine. When started the console window pops up but displays only the final text
Press ENTER to continue

It might be only on machines where a previous version of Codelite has been installed before.

Many thanks for a hint,
Helmut.

Its not really related to codelite...
but try this:

Code: Select all

std::count << "hello world" << std::endl;

This should clear the buffers

I don't believe this is the cause.
It works just fine on many devices using Windows7 and Linux.
I've even tried to execute a cin call after the output. According to C++ standards cin and cout are linked, i.e. a call to cin outputs the buffers of cout.
I think I've even tried cerr which doesn't do buffering at all.

Is there any means to remove all effects of a previous installation of Codelite on a Windows machine? Do I need to use regedit?

Many thanks,
Helmut.

It turns out, this does only work if one is logged in as Administrator.
Did I do some strange with Innosetup?

Many thanks for a hint,
