C++, xcode and terminal, absolute basics

Question

I have an Xcode project, just the standard hello world app that comes with xcode for c++. I hit build and run, it runs, it completes, I see nothing.

How do I get this to open up in terminal?

Answer 1

shift+cmd+Y brings up the debugger and console. You can see all the output there. Alternatively, you can choose View from the menu bar and click 'Show Debug Area'. This debug area shows the output of your program just like Terminal.
