Build 200212181304 1. Create simple project 'Test' 2. Create simple file 'Test/test.bat' with the following content: @pause @echo After first pause @pause @echo After second pause 3. Create launch config for test.bat and run 4. In the console, press the space bar Observe: Nothing happens If you press Enter, then it looks like 2 characters are sent to the program (maybe CR and LF?) and the program doesn't stop on the second pause.
The console does not send input to the underlying program until enter is pressed. This allows for backspacing in the console. However, this is obviously different from what happens at the command line. The console is owned by debug.
Deferred
It is different behavior when running .bat files, but our console is consistent with the command line when running a java vm. Not sure there's much we can do about this. Our console does not make a very good shell replacement right now.
marking as duplicate of newer bug which addresses the bigger issue of making the console more shell- like. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 36669 ***
