Writing to console in cygwin

SDL Development
1

Why can’t I write to my cygwin bash shell? I tried cout and printf each of
them before and after SDL_Init - nothing works, why? Is there any way to do
this? I need it for debugging and don’t want to mess around with stdout.txt
or stderr.txt_________________________________________

You’ll have to use the SDL_nostdio build I believe, or disable the
SDL_parachute by not intializing the SDL parachute when you call
SDL_Init(). I can’t remember for sure…On Sat, 2002-12-28 at 13:03, Thomas Gahr wrote:

Disabling the parachute doesn’t solve the problem, and I don’t know about an
SDL_nostdio build. :(_______________________________________________
