Prompt in root6

ROOT
1

I found that a usual way to set a custom prompt doesn’t work in root6:

((TRint*) gROOT->GetApplication())->SetPrompt("// ");

The prompt stays the same.

Best,
Andriy.

Hi Andriy,

I can reproduce this: thanks for reporting this issue!
As you can imagine we worked hard to provide in ROOT6 at the prompt the same users’ experience of Cint (and much more) despite the radical change in the interpreter technology: some aspects unfortunately fell through the cracks :frowning:.
I reported this behaviour in the ROOT tracker to be fixed: sft.its.cern.ch/jira/browse/ROOT-6372.

Cheers,
Danilo
