Sorry for the late response.

Yeah, I'm sure that it doesn't work for me anyway. Here is a simple program that does exhibits the problem.

int main() {
	cout << "Your Name? ";   // break points work here
        char name[25];
        cin >> name;
        cout << "Hello " << name;  // break points no longer work!!
       return 0;
}


The symptom is I can set a breakpoint on the first line, but not anyplace after that. Single step does not work either.


I tried the ctl-c thing, doesn't seem to work for me.


Thanks again,

	RIck

Debugging works fine, as long as you don't need stdin. Obviously, program stdin conflicts with GDB's commands.

Are you sure? GDB does have a lot of bugs regarding stdin/stdout (particularly with multi-threaded programs, I've noticed, but then it's terribly buggy with such apps anyway), but it does work in some (arguably most) cases... if you mean you can't control gdb and the program at once, then yes, but you can always control-C to get to gdb's prompt from your program, and then "c" (continue) to resume your program. Assuming your input isn't time sensitive, and you don't block the relevant signal for ctrl-C, etc.
