Infinite loop problem
By zeddie, history, 8 months ago, In English

I am using the sublime editor for running my code on my machine. And I am using File I/O like this:

#ifndef ONLINE_JUDGE freopen("/home/zeddie/Documents/input.txt","r",stdin); freopen("/home/zeddie/Documents/output.txt","w",stdout); freopen("/home/zeddie/Documents/error.txt","w",stderr); #endif __

#### PROBLEM: Sometimes when I do some error in my program that leads to an infinite loop, then my programs produce infinite output and programs keeps on running and my system starts lagging. Only option I have now is to reboot my machine.

Can anyone help me with this?

Go to Preferences -> Key Bindings, then add

[
	{ "keys": ["ctrl+alt+b"], "command": "cancel_build" }
]

on the right. Then you'll be able to press ctrl+alt+b to cancel your build.

go to -> Tools -> click on cancel build (else you can use shortcut to do the same)

You can create a new build system in sublime. You can refer to this build system that allows you to set a custom timeout.

    I'm getting this error by using this build system "ERROR: Invalid syntax. Default option is not allowed more than '1' time(s). Type "TIMEOUT /?" for usage." Any idea about it how to resolve?

zeddie Hey there!

You should try Tools -> Cancel Build(Control-C shortcut in Mac).

Sublime is great in terms of output production but in certain cases like infinite loop it causes high and intensive heating.
