when the program ran alone without redirection or pipe line, the output went to screen which was line buffered so you can see it before it died. All the other scenarios you had later involved buffering of larger amount of data. Due to the sudden death of the program the output was lost.
You can run the program under a tty program or modify the source code to make it line buffered or flush the output.

Hi ,
Working on AIX 4.3. An internal error from my apps engine suddenly causes the engine to die. During this time i do notice a core file being dumped in the directory from where I try to re-start my engine.
Q is how does one read this core file, or I should say 'what is this core file'?

crashinfo
CRASHINFO(8) BSD System Manager's Manual CRASHINFO(8)
NAME
crashinfo -- analyze a core dump of the operating system
SYNOPSIS
crashinfo [-d crashdir] [-n dumpnr] [-k kernel] [core]
DESCRIPTION
The crashinfo utility analyzes a core dump saved by savecore(8). It generates a text file containing the analysis in the same directory as
the core dump. For a given core dump file named vmcore.XX the generated text file will be named core.txt.XX.
By default, crashinfo analyzes the most recent core dump in the core dump directory. A specific core dump may be specified via either the
core or dumpnr arguments. Once crashinfo has located a core dump, it analyzes the core dump to determine the exact version of the kernel
that generated the core. It then looks for a matching kernel file under each of the subdirectories in /boot. The location of the kernel
file can also be explicitly provided via the kernel argument.
Once crashinfo has located a core dump and kernel, it uses several utilities to analyze the core including dmesg(8), fstat(1), iostat(8),
ipcs(1), kgdb(1), netstat(1), nfsstat(1), ps(1), pstat(8), and vmstat(8).
The options are as follows:
-d crashdir
Specify an alternate core dump directory. The default crash dump directory is /var/crash.
-n dumpnr
Use the core dump saved in vmcore.dumpnr instead of the latest core in the core dump directory.
-k kernel
Specify an explicit kernel file.
SEE ALSO
textdump(4), savecore(8)
HISTORY
The crashinfo utility appeared in FreeBSD 6.4.
