cout does no print in QtCreator

I saw this question already on this forum but I do not know why the proposed answer does not work in my case. So I try to ask for other slution.

I just got my Qt creator running under Linux.

I do not understand why my:

c开发者_如何学Cout << "This does not appear";

Does not print in console while qdebug does

qDebug() << "This appears";

This is what is contained in my .pro file:

QT       += core gui

TARGET = aaa
TEMPLATE = app


SOURCES += main.cpp\
        mainwindow.cpp \
    IeplcModule.cpp

HEADERS  += mainwindow.h \
    IeplcModule.h

FORMS    += mainwindow.ui

#enable console
CONFIG += console

Any idea?

Try with:

cout << "asdf" << endl;

Possibly Qt sets up iostream in order to flush only at new line.

When debugging with CDB (Windows debugger) and running application not in the dedicated terminal window, but within QtCreator output panel, there is an issue with std::cout/std::cerr. qDebug works because it has a trick for this case. So, the only solution in this case is enable the "run in terminal" option. For more infor please follow the link above to the Qt bug tracker.

Is it possible that STDOUT is redirecting? qDebug prints to STDERR by default.

Did you #include <iostream>? I did not see any includes in the code. I assume that qdebug and cout are very similar.

Make sure you have console config enabled in your .pro file. I.e. :

CONFIG += console

You can run this program from CMD and it will print some messages to the console:

/* Create a .pro file with this content:
QT += core gui widgets
SOURCES += main.cpp
TARGET = app
-------------------------------
Build and run commands for CMD:
> qmake -makefile
> mingw32-make
> "release/app"
