How to implement input via stdin while debugging in Qt Creator?

Question

Qt

Hello.
Situation :

• console program
  
• getting data from user via stdin
  
• Debugging in Qt Creator with GDB
  
• noob misunderstanding of input through stdin during debugging
  
• forced hardcode of variables requiring input from the user
  

Please help me see the obvious, thanks.

You can open a program in one window, enter data, etc., while in another run gdb and do an attach PID by substituting the process ID of your running program
