High OB and thanks for the reply, (sorry, I misread what you had asked so I edited this reply to reflect answering your questions properly)
Not sure if this a bug in the latest release as well as the nightly version but it happens in both.
Just to make sure everything was up-to-date, I installed 10.5 and the blank console window is present there as well. After double and triple checking my compiler locations as well as installing a fresh Ming package, and after closing CB and rebooting the program and creating new projects a few times I was finally able to see output to the screen (and yes, I was stopping the window from auto-closing).
The console still goes blank from time to time but not as much so I'm not sure what's causing it. Also, why is there a new warning about an auto-importer? Is that a new feature just added or something?
Never saw that one before though I was able to kill it by doing the -WI, -blah blah blah in the linker box though that wasn't my greatest concern. My concern is the console window remaining completely blank especially if I'm working on extremely large and complex projects.
Also to answer your questions, yes I'm actually printing out in fact here's a tidbit I was using when testing the console window:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
int A = 7;
int B = 7;
if(A > B){
cout <<"A IS greater than B!" << endl;
}else if(A < B){
cout <<"A is NOT greater than B!" << endl;
}else if(A == B){
cout <<"A is EQUAL B!" << endl;
}else{
cout <<"A can't be compared to that lousy letter B!" << endl;
}
cout << "Press RETURN to continue...";
cin.get();
return 0;
}
and no, I don't see anything even when not in debugging mode. However, as mentioned above, I now am seeing output but the console does go blank from time to time, especially during debugging I found.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
PS: I forgot to add this, but I don't see any errors when this happens. Everything compiles normally just with no output.
