U++

the command "set new-console on" is mswindows specific, it allows the output redirection of the program to a new console.

the patch then in Gdb.cpp:

bool Gdb::Create(One<Host>&& _host, const String& exefile, const String& cmdline, bool console)
{
....
    Cmd("set prompt " GDB_PROMPT);
    Cmd("set disassembly-flavor intel");
    Cmd("set exec-done-display off");
    Cmd("set annotate 1");
    Cmd("set height 0");
    Cmd("set width 0");
    Cmd("set confirm off");
    Cmd("set print asm-demangle");
    Cmd("set print static-members off");
    Cmd("set print vtbl off");
    Cmd("set print repeat 0");
    Cmd("set print null-stop");

    Cmd("set new-console on");   // LINE ADDED
....
}
