[Dev-C++] possible bug of MinGW compiler

[Luigi S. <gi...@li...>]

Hi all,

I tried the small program named "test.exe" (source is "test.c" and is 
attached to this message) using the file "in.txt" (also attached) as its input.

I have used the MinGW compiler shipped with Dev-C++ 4.0 (the output of the 
command: "gcc -v" says "gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)"), to build 
the executable on a Win98 SE equipped system.

To my surprise, I found that when the input of "test.exe" comes "directly" 
from stdin (I mean without redirection) there is no output! As usual on DOS 
systems, I used Ctrl+z to type EOF.

The program works as expected when input comes from a file or "indirectly" 
from stdin.

Is there something wrong in the program or is it a bug of the compiler?

Thank you for your attention.
