Strange behavior of MSVC's printf under cygwin shell?

2002-03-25 Thread Wirawan Purwanto
Hi, Why does the screen output displayed using MSVC's printf subroutine not get shown immediately under Cygwin shell (bash, specifically)? Rather, it would wait for a long time before showing the text lines (many lines at once). How to change this behavior? I used the following (simple) code as

I have frequently seen unpredictable behavior of C prints in terms of their timing. (I'm an old guy and I still debug with prints from time to time). The only way I got predictable results was to do a buffer flush immediately after the print. In my case, if I didn't do that, and the program

Thank you for your suggestions. The points are: 1) Cygwin did very well, but not now; That's irrelevant, Cygwin's behavior is SUSv2 compliant, AFAICS. 2) I was not using ftime to get time, but to get timezone information. OK, another quote from the SUSv3 docs
