------- Additional Comments From eric@xxxxxxxxxxxxx  2005-09-11 10:11 -------
I strongly agree with comments 12 and 14.

I'm a brand-new user of Eclipse, the first thing I did was install CDT and 
follow your online tutorial - which promptly produced garbled results for a two 
line 'hello, world!'

I was lucky enough to find this bug in the google search, but it wasn't easy.

To provide some more helpful debugging info,

This program:
===
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char **argv) {
	string s, s2;

	if (argc < 2) {
		cerr << "usage: " << argv[0] << " <firstname>" << endl;
		exit(1);
	}	

	cout << "enter name: ";
	cin >> s;
 
	s2 = argv[1];
	
	if (s != s2) {
		cerr << "names don't match!  Using argument value: " << argv[1] 
<< endl;
		cout << "Hello1, " + s << endl;
		s = s2;
		cout << "Hello2, " + s << endl;
		
	}
	cout << "Hello, " + s << endl;
//	fflush(stdout);
	sleep(1);
	return(0);
}
===

works as expected at the command line:

===
C:\Documents and Settings\Eric Safern\workspace\hW\Debug>hw e
enter name: ee
names don't match!  Using argument value: e
Hello1, ee
Hello2, e
Hello, e
===

but in the console, even with the sleep, the cout and cerr are intermingled.

===
enter name: e
names don't match!  Using argument value: Hello1, e
Hello2, Eric
Hello, Eric
Eric
===

You can't tell without color, :-)  but the words 'value:' and the final 'Eric' 
are in red, indicating cerr.

Note the behavior is consistent for me from run to run.
