Hello everyone

I've barely started to learn how things in Network library are working and while trying to make a simple send-receive application I've encountered a problem.
This is the code I'm dealing with:
#include <SFML/Network.hpp>
#include <iostream>
sf::UdpSocket socket;
std::string msg;
int main() {
if (socket.bind(1500) != sf::Socket::Done) exit (1);
std::cout << "Waiting for message...\n";
sf::IpAddress sender;
unsigned short psender;
while (1==1) {
sf::Packet packet;
socket.receive(packet, sender, psender);
if (packet >> msg) {
std::cout << msg;
}
}
return 0;
}
Everything was fine when there was no loop, but I want to receive more than one packet

I've seen the example chat application and it's using thread to manage sending and receiving. Should I do the same and it will work? Or is there something in my code that I don't see
EDIT: So I've tried to edit my code, done the receiver in another thread and in the main loop I just wait to type "exit". The messages are received properly, but they print after I press enter or write something. I get a feeling that I'm missing something, but looking the example (
https://github.com/SFML/SFML/wiki/Source:-Network-Chat-Example) there's nothing I can think of

Here's the code as well:

EDIT 3: Yes, it was it. Just needed to add the eol and it's working properly now
