I can't add input in internal terminal in KDevelop

Question

I'm new to KDevelop,

how do you type input in the internal terminal in KDevelop?

Say I have a program that asks the user his/her age? When I execute it in KDevelop I can see the output (the question) but I can't add any input.

when I run the program in Ubuntu's terminal, it works fine, but I can't input anything in KDevelop.

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, KDevelop 4.3.1, KDE 4.8.4.

You can't. Activate the "Use External Terminal" option in the launch configuration.

If you want to debug this is not supported - in that case you have to run your application manually in a terminal and attach the debugger.
