#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    char c;
    ofstream outFile("/home/gnome/Music/file.txt", ios::out);
    while (cin >> c) {
        outFile.put(c);
    }
    outFile.close();

    return 0;
}

When I want to stop, I can't interrupt it with a control-D like I do on the the Linux terminal. How do I do this in eclipse. The issue is that, It doesn't write any char to my file. When I cat the file, it's empty, and the past data is gone. Empty. I used this code with g++ on the terminal, and it works. How do I use this in eclipse?

Or maybe Ctrl+C. – HolyBlackCat May 01 '18 at 15:22
I used that ctrl-z, and it's still not working. – Frank May 01 '18 at 15:23
What OS are you using? – drescherjm May 01 '18 at 15:26
Ctrl-Z worked for me using Eclipse Oxygen 3 on Windows 10. – Fred Larson May 01 '18 at 15:28

I use Ubuntu-Mate 18.04 LTS Bionic. – Frank May 01 '18 at 15:31
Never tried this on Linux, but do you get a system console if you place a .gdbinit file containing "set new-console on" into the projects root folder? If so, does it respect the usual ctrl+ keys? – user4581301 May 01 '18 at 15:38

I placed the .gdbinit file under /home/gnome and it's still not working. – Frank May 01 '18 at 15:58
It works fine for me in `eclipse` on `Linux`. Perhaps make sure the console window has input focus by clicking on it? – Galik May 01 '18 at 16:00
Ctrl-D works, but if I use it before Ctrl-Z, it does not. – Frank May 01 '18 at 16:02
@Galik Yes, it has focus. I put "text", then I see my file with cat, nano, and the file is empty – Frank May 01 '18 at 16:04
I downloaded from the official web page, I didn't installed from repos, if the helps. It's a lot buggy, because it doesn't recognize "endl" sometimes, for example. Many bugs. – Frank May 01 '18 at 16:12
I created a file called "file.txt" inside the project, and It works great. I don't know why writing to the file outside the project doesn't work. – Frank May 01 '18 at 16:59
@Frank So is it the `Ctrl-D` that is not working or the *writing to a file* that is not working? – Galik May 01 '18 at 17:41
@Galik It's the writing to a file. It works only locally, inside the project folder, not outside. – Frank May 01 '18 at 17:57
