RE: [cdt-dev] How do I get eclipse/cdt to read from the standardinput?

["Stephen McLaughlin" <smclaughlin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Wieant,
  I saw this under the common tab, but despite being labeled as
"standard input & output" if you specify a file it seems like the output
of the program goes into that file.  Is there to change this so that the
program can actually read a file as standard input?  Or, is David right
and there simply isn't a way to do this with Eclipse? 

Thanks,
Stephen

Just had a quick look at the debugger configuration options, and
the 'common' tab seems to provide a 'Standard Input and Output' group.
I'm just guessing, but you might be able to specify your inputfile
there,
so it is used as stdin (corresponding to '< my_input_file').
