Haskell Console IO in notepad++
- by IVlad
I've recently started to learn Haskell. I have this code
module Main
where
import IO
main = do
hSetBuffering stdin LineBuffering
putStrLn "Please enter your name: "
name <- getLine
putStrLn ("Hello, " ++ name ++ ", how are you?")
I'm using the GHC compiler together with the notepad++ editor. The problem is the interaction goes like this:
Process started
Vlad
Please enter your name:
Hello, Vlad, how are you?
<<< Process finished.
As you can see, output is only written after I input something. This was a bit unexpected, as I was sure the program would first ask for my name, then I'd get to enter it and then it would say hello. Well, that's exactly what happens if I run the exe manually, yet not if I run it with notepad++ and use its console wrapper...
How can I make notepad++ display the output when it should, and not all of it just before the program terminates? Is this even possible?
