HelloWorld Program not outputting? [message #1015516] Fri, 01 March 2013 02:12 Go to next message

// Your Name - Project Title - Date - (Whatever Else-Optional)
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main (void){

cout << "Hello World!";
return 0;
}


I don't know if it is just outputting it very quickly or not at all..l It terminates my program as fast as i can blink. How do i freeze the output? Or does this not happen when it successfully outputs a message?!?

Hi Kyle,
I have the same issue. How did you resolve it please? Thanks. Paul.

Post by Andy Gianfagna solved my issue. Something to do with 64bit PCs.

"I was getting the same behavior on Win 7 64 Bit. Adding the -static-libgcc helped get things to show up in the debugger view, but they still didn't show when running in C++ view. However when I added a PATH variable set to C:\MinGW\bin in the Run Configuration, then I saw stdout when running from a normal run configuration in the C+ view. HTH."

I still have not resolved it. I will definitely post back here when I figure this out.

**UPDATE**

I clicked 'Run' a few more times and caught this:

"Info: Nothing to build for HelloWorld"
--------------------------------------------------------

*** Where do I add this PATH?

If your platform is Windows and you want to see the output in the
Eclipse console when running the program under control of Eclipse, i.e.
through "Run as->Local C/C++ application", the answer may be here:
http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/FAQ#Eclipse_console_does_not_show_output_on_Windows


If you run the program by double clicking on any Explorer-like
environment then the behaviour is to be expected. You could either try
to run it from a command prompt or request some final user input before
returning from main.

Cheers,

First add in <cstdlib> , using namespace std, and the system("PAUSE"); line at the end the code but before the return(). Now the code will put the output into a window without exiting until you click any key. This idea works fine for the DevC++ compiler for my c code, different library, but same function. Although this is the correct code to put into the Eclipse CDT compiler, there is a problem: it doesn't work! If you run the exe file in a DOS command line window you will get an error message saying that libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll cannot be found! If you look on the internet you will find that this is a common problem with minGW! The dll must is not there! You can download the file and try installing it in the miinGW/bin directory as this seems to be the correct location for the dll file, but I have not done so yet. And minGW has not yet answered my post about fixing this problem with minGW or that the bin directory is the correct directory to put the dll in.

In a default installation of MinGW it is installed in \mingw\bin. The
poblem is probably that \mingw\bin is not in your path when trying to
start the executable.
