System.out console output CP1252/CP850

I've been trying to write something to receive XML as 'messages' through a socket connection and, in order to see better what's being parsed, I've been writing the elements and data to System.out so I can see the values in the console window (this is Windows XP).
The problem I get is that when the client passes German characters such as '�' (o-umlaut), they don't get displayed correctly on the console window - the character that actually gets displayed is '�' (division sign?) - even though the correct value DOES (as far as I can tell) find its way into my Java String object.
I've investigated this a bit and I find that if I 'force' the output to use encoding 'Cp850' (OEM - Multilingual Latin I) then it works correctly (I do this by creating an OutputStreamWriter object with that encoding and based on System.out and then I create a BufferedWriter based on that OutputStreamWriter).
If, however, I explicitly use Cp1252 (ANSI - Latin I) then I get the original problem. I don't understand this because as far as I can tell, Cp1252 included the '�' character as code 246, which is the one I'm passing to it.
It also may (or may not) be significant that my file.encoding property is set to 'Cp1252' but when I override this using the java -D command option, I get the correct result.
So, in essense, my question is: why does Cp850 work but Cp1252 not work?
Thanks in advance for any help
Regards
John

I could do, but that's not really a problem - I've already got the 'work around' I need using Cp850. I just want to understand WHY it does what it does, because it seems to me that Cp1252 should work as well.

System.out console in GUI

hi i'm constructing a GUI for one of my programs using the swing librarys however i cant figure out how to display the system.out's. I really have no idea how to do it or i would post how im trying to or usual if anyone knows a better way to print strings (an undetermined number of strings this is) to a GUI please let me know

Hi,
Why are you using System.out combined with Swing? Just print text to some text component instead (e.g. JTextArea, see the javadoc for that class for more info)

Not getting System.out.println output in Web Start Log File

I am new to this but I'm running through the examples in Mauro Marinilli's "Java Deployment with JNLP and WebStart" and the install-win and install-win2 examples are not writing properly to a user-specified log file on my desktop (chosen location). I have several versions of j2re/jre installed on my client computer and have started several of the javaws.exe files on my computer to specify that I wish to Show Java Console and Log Output but
1) no Java console pops up when I subsequently run the JNLP from my web server
AND
2) no log file is written
I do see the batch file left in place for install-win2 so I believe that the application is being run (such as it is... lol)...
Any ideas what the problem might be? All reasonable suggestions (i.e. not PEBKAC) welcomed...

How about in Solaris?
May I use the similar method to redirect the stdout to a specific file? What is the syntax for this?
Or, I can only start server with interactive mode (without watchdog) and use ">" to redirect the logs?

Hi,
change your actionPerformed() method as below to get the required output.
public void actionPerformed(ActionEvent e)
          String demodata=datapayload.getText();
             textFieldName.append("In Action Block"+"\t"+demodata);
          //Demo pr = new Demo();      You are creating a new object to all DemoRoute method. This is the problem
          //pr.DemoRoute(demodata);
             this.DemoRoute(demodata);
}And also my suggestion is follow java coding conventions while coding

Hi!
I have a problem. I would like to get a hand on the console output in my applet. Not saving it to a file, but get the info as a String(or similar) in my program.
Is this possible? If so, how do I do it? Is there any class(es) to handle this?
Thanks in advance.

Where does System.out.println go?

Hi Everyone: I know I've seen this topic before, but I'm still having some trouble. I would like to debug my EJBs, and so I've added some System.out.println statements to them. Where does that go? I've looked at the defaultTrace.trc files in the
C:\usr\sap\P48\JC00\j2ee\cluster\server0\log
folder, and haven't found any of the text that I think I am writing. I appreciate any guidance! Ian.

Hi lan,
I was facing the same question earlier, and now I think I have figured out one possible answer. Actually, where the System.out.println goes is up to the Server Admin to config. There is a default SYSTEM.OUT log controller ( under location controller side) pre-defined to cater for all System.out.println(). All the System.out.println() output is considered as INFO type log message. However, this default SYSTEM.OUT controller is not assigned with any real log destination, thus, we cannot find the output anywhere.
If you goes to the log configurator (using Visual Admin), you can locate this SYSTEM.OUT controller , and add in a default (Anonymous) destionation for it . (you need to toggle on the advance edit mode from the top menu , then you can add modify the destination settings of a Controller).
For Anonymous destionation, the println() output will sure go to the defaultTrace.trc (better view it using Log Viewer, instead of viewing it from the log file ).
Or , you can define a separate file (e.g. c:\temp\myStd.log ) as the log destination ..
Last but not the least, you need to set the ForceSingleTraceFile setting from 'YES' to 'NO' , then you can see your "myStd.log".
To change the ForceSingleTraceFile , go to Visual Admin, J2EE server --> Kernel --> LogManager.
Hope you find the above useful.

Lost System.out.println statements.

Hi
I have few system.out.println in my jsp which i am using in my JSP provider channel. but when I look at the portal server's /var/opt/SUNWam/debug/desktop.debug file, none are there.. I looked at the web server's access and error logs too, but it is not there also.. can somebody tell me how do it get those ?? do we have any other mechanism to put debug logs ?

By default the binary which web server runs is uxwdog which eats up System.out.println output. If you want to see the System.out.println then you need to change the product binary from the start script of the portal server instance.
- Go to <portal-install-dir>/SUNWam/servers/https-<instance-name> and open the start script
- Change the PRODUCT_BIN=uxwdog to PRODUCT_BIN=ns-httpd , save the file
- Run the script ./start to start the portal server
Note : with ns-httpd ON the server will not leave that shell, and in the same window/shell you will be able to see all your System.out.println statements. To close the server you have to kill the server process with "kill -9 pids" command
Alternate way is to use api inside your application or jsp:
<%@page import="com.sun.portal.providers.jsp.JSPProvider, com.sun.portal.providers.*, com.sun.portal.providers.containers.*, com.sun.portal.providers.context.*" %>
<% JSPProvider p=(JSPProvider)pageContext.getAttribute("JSPProvider");
ProviderContext pc = p.getProviderContext(); %>
<%-- after that you can use these lines any where in your jsp --%>
<%
pc.debugError("your error msg");
pc.debugMessage("your msg");
pc.debugWarning("your warning msg");
%>
The perticular mgs will be shwon in /var/opt/SUNWam/debug/desktop.debug file as per your "debugLevel" parameter setting in /etc/opt/SUNWps/desktop/desktopconfig.properties file. By default the debugLevel is set to error so only pc.debugError("error msg") will be shown.

System.out broke?

I'm programming in linux and I've made a simple program that run's a GUI display. I added a menu item action listener and inside the action method it should print something or anything it doesn't matter. My only problem is that it never prints. Furthermore, I put a System.out before the System.exit in the File | Exit menu and it skips over that and exits the program with no output. When I put System.out's in the public static void main method it works fine, after the GUI starts, nothing prints. Any ideas?

You can also do a flush in Java. Try:
System.out.println( "OUTPUT HERE" );
System.out.flush();and see if that forces the output.
Good luck.

Timestamp in system out

Is there a setting to tell WebLogic to prepend System.out.println() output with the current timestamp? So instead of:
Print line 1
Print line 2
it would be something like:
04/02/2009 17:21:53:0640 Print line 1
04/02/2009 17:21:53:0643 Print line 2
Thanks,

The program is supposed to do electronic notarization such as intellectual property protection, verify the when is a Will declared etc.
In the program, I apply a self generated eCert to generate a timestamp for the aforesaid purpose, however, I caught an exception when generate a CertPath. So any idea??

System.out from Java class not output to JSP

I am using JSP to make a Java API web accessible. I include (package) java classes that write error messages to standard out when they catch an error. Works fine on the command line. Problem occurs when using in JSP. I include them with a page directive (importing the package) rather than use them as beans, since they do so much more than beans do, and since I use many of the classes in a single page.
i.e.
<%@ page import="OPS.*" %>
When errors occur, messages to "standard out" (system.out) don't appear in the html output of the JSP. I don't know where they are going (they aren't in the web server's error log), but they aren't going where I expected them to (browser window).
I figured that standard out was the browser (httpServletResponse). Where am I going wrong here?
Basically, I have a class that connects to a database (call it db) and does queries/updates. I have a class (call it employee) that uses the db class. I have a jsp page that instantiates the employee class and executes method calls. The code in the db class that outputs SQL error messages (db class instantiated by employee class) never gets put in the browser window. Nor in the server log, nor the console.
How can I get system.out calls in classes db and employee to get output to the browser? The JSP outputs all other code and is not freezing nor not flushing the buffer.
Thanks!

I also use an Iplanet over which I have little control. But I can log on via telnet. If I log on (I use Reflection) and run my pages, the errors show in the Reflection window. If you have telnet access to the server, you might want to give this a try.
Another alternative would be to add a few lines to your classes that allow you to pass a reference to the jsp StringWriter from your jsp and use that to output the errors to the browser.

Hello Nithi,
I find it strange that your System.out.println statements are beingexecuted from
within your servlets, but not in your stateless session bean. Are
you
positive
that your EJB is being located and deployed by WebLogic? The statementsin
your
static { } block should be executed as soon as the WebLogic class
loader
finds
the class and loads it into the JVM. I would suggest examining theconsole
and
try to determine if your EJB is in fact being deployed. Are you invokingmethods
on the EJB inside of your servlets? Are you using any logging frameworkfrom within
the EJBs which would redirect output to a file?

What does System.out.println("Hello world!"); when System.console()=null?

Hello,
the code below:
if(System.console()!=null)
            outStream=System.out;
        else
            outStream=new PrintStream(new FileOutputStream(new File("BasicCardReaderManagerLog.log")));
        outStream.println(System.currentTimeMillis());
        outStream.println(System.out.toString());produce the following output, in the BasicCardReaderManagerLog.log file:
1249991451796
java.io.PrintStream@190d11
So it looks like System.out is valid and usable, however, since the application as no console, where I can see the output ???
Precision: I get this situation in the main function of a console application which I launch using Process.Start. Is there any way to get a console by this mean ?

How to see console output in Sun Java(TM) System Web Server 6.1 SP7?

Dear All,
I am having Sun Java(TM) System Web Server 6.1 SP7 installed on Windows 2000 Prof.
I have deployed few applications and they were running successfully.
From debugging point of view, i like to see the output from System.out.println .
Prior to SP7 there is a console which shows this output. But now the batch files only starts and stops the admin and site server services. Where to see for console output?
Is there command like tail.exe of Weblogic awailable for Sun Java System Web Server or any setting to be done in Admin?
Please revert.
