I followed vscode’s documentation to install the GCC compiler. However, vscode keeps asking me to select a configuration for running my file and according to the documentation I should supposedly select it only once at the beginning, and when I run it there are some things which I think are anomalies.
When running, these 2 terminals are opened (image below)
g++.exe runs in the terminal and says "Build finished Successfully", but the second terminal is what has the weird stuff (image below)
What is this "^C" symbol? And what are the blue paths?
I tried checking the configuration JSON files, but couldn’t find anything helpful.
>Solution :
Pressing Ctrl + C (shown as ^C in the terminal) sends a signal to terminate the currently running process. However, this is just the tip of the iceberg for what this command can do and how it works under the hood. To dive deeper, you can explore more details online about how Ctrl + C interacts with signals and process management in different operating systems.
The blue path is VS Code color-coding of specific types of messages like compiling code
