How do I configure eclipse to open linux terminal instead of eclipse console? [message #1819530] Thu, 16 January 2020 16:22 Go to next message

I would like to know how to configure eclipse to open and use my Linux terminal, in this case, GNOME Terminal, instead of the eclipse console in a debug session?

I'm using Eclipse CDT 2019-12

You could try launching the Terminal with a command to execute your program.
Or just start your program in a terminal.
All of the I/O will go to the terminal.
Then attach the debugger to the program.
You would need some way for your program to wait until the debugger attaches.

I've never used it myself but maybe the standalone debugger would be easier.
However, I think it's just a cut-down version of CDT.

Seems like a lot of trouble.
What's wrong with using the Eclipse console?

Well, it seems it is. I ask because it's really easy to do it on windows and I refuse to think that there is something that can be done on windows that can't be done in Linux. But if it that much trouble I can stick with the console.

No particular reason, so far, it's just I like more the look and feel of the terminal.
