[Qt-creator] cin doesn't work on Linux

[Eike Ziller]

Hi,

did you check the "Run in Terminal" option in your application's run configuration?
The standard "Application Output" pane that is integrated into Qt Creator is no real console emulation,
so to get your app run in a real terminal (as specified in the Environment|General preferences) you need to check it.

I of course used std:: and all that stuff. My problem is that when trying to input something everything just hangs. I write something then press ENTER then I write something again then press ENTER again but it just doesn't work , the input is not accepted and the program doesn't move one no matter what I do.  Using Muhammad Bashir Al-Noimi's code I get the same thing. Nothing after cin is executed no matter what I do.
