Code::Blocks console app won't show output

I've got an application in Code::Blocks, and it's the simple Hello, World traditional program. 

#include <iostream>

int main() {
    std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
}

The program builds and executes, but the output isn't shown. I checked the project properties in Code::Blocks and it is definitely set to console application. Any suggestions as to the problem?

Edit: The output only fails in the IDE. When run separately the resulting executable functions exactly as expected.

I had this problem but it went away after I shut code blocks down and restarted. I also shut down without saving changes to the perspective (if that matters). It may be important that it happened right after I made an empty project and tried to make that empty project into a c++ console application. When that didn't work I made a "console application" project (with the hello world) but it wouldn't show the console either.

Maybe you need to set the terminal to launch the console applications. It can be done in the general environment settings.

It's possible that you don't have xterm installed it.

If you are on Linux (Debian flavor) you can install it with your package manager like so:

sudo apt-get install xterm
