Description stompdagger1 2010-05-06 08:53:13 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.4.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Gentoo Packages

hello.
kdevelop 4 is an excellent ide, but there is something that is missing imho, while I can debug any non input dependent program, it is impossible to debug programs that need to interact with the users.
it would be nice if that feature will be added.

You are talking about CLI input, right?

as a workaround you can launch the app externally and attach the debugger to it.

yes, I know. still it would be nice if kdevelop will support it natively.

Related to bug 253972, not sure whether to close as duplicate.

You can configure launch settings to launch an application in external terminal and have all cmd-line io working.

question is, will it have the same features as the debug session?

Comment 7 Kostik Karganov 2010-12-22 07:02:23 UTC

Sorry, I don't understand what do you mean.

To debug your cmd-line tool you have two options:
- launch it from your own terminal and then attach to running process
- configure launch settings to launch the application in the new terminal window (command, arguments, working dir, environment etc are customizable)

In case you have some non-trivial launch process or whatever you can use the first way.
