I'm new to C++ and I'm working on a basic C++ project.
I have some lines of text (with whitespace in them) that I want to make the program accept from standard input and then stop when it encounters a (simulated) EOF because of a Ctrl + D.
I've looked up and tried the solutions given here and here. They work ie the code in the while loop stops executing after I hit Ctrl + D but for some reason the following lines of code do not get executed.
I've tried various ways to do this but I keep getting the same problem.
string line;
int i = 0;
while (true) {
if (getline(cin, line)) {
A[i] = line;
cout << A[i] << endl; //executes as expected
i++;
} else {
break;
}
}
cout << "exited" << endl; //not executed even after ctrl+d
Here's another method I tried:
string line;
int i = 0;
while (getline(cin, line)){
//cin.ignore();
A[i] = line;
cout << A[i] << endl; //executes as expected
i++;
}
cout << "exited" << endl; //still not executed

PS: I use Eclipse CDT on Ubuntu.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.
