If I
System.out.print("something\r");
at console, I have cursor back at the beginning of line, and finally after
System.out.print("something\r");
System.out.print(" any\r");
I have
anything
typed.
But at Eclipse console I get
something
anything
as if it treated \r
as CR/LF.
How can I setup this?
As Nishant already pointed out in the comments, you've found a bug here.
This bug initially was reported in 2004 (>9 years ago!?!!) and this bug seems not to be fixed very soon (or ever). I tested it on several Eclipse version, even on Eclipse Juno SR2, and the bug is still there.
It finally seems to be fixed in Mars!
Version: Mars Release (4.5.0)
Build id: 20150621-1200
Used Java: jre1.8.0_60
Your code
public class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.print("something\r");
System.out.print(" any\r");
}
}
Output
anything
