Text from standard input not visible after program exits from a readline
I am facing an issue where the text from my stdin is not visible from on my terminal. My program does the following
Sets a SIGALRM handler which exits a program when there is no input from the user after certain duration.
void sigalrm_handler(int arg)
{
exit(0);
}
In main function :
{
...
alarm(100);
line = readline(line = readline(prompt);)
...
}
However, after my program exits, I cannot see what I type on my terminal. But the commands work fine.
running
system("reset") solves the issue for now. But I need a cleaner solution.
I have tried
int rl_reset_line_state () and int rl_reset_terminal (char *terminal_name) but they dont seem to work.
linux terminal tty c readline
