System.out.println capture to buffer

Hi All,
My application runs other application in back. How can I capture system.out.println() written by another application & display via dialog box.
Like :execl() or execv() function in C runtime library. Where every printf() message printed to passed buffer.
Thank you,
Avin Patel

If i understand your question correctly, you should execute command for you help.html file. The system will run default browser.
such as:
void runBrowser(String file)
{String cmd = null;   
     Process p;   
          try  {       
               String os = System.getProperty("os.name");            
               if (os != null && os.startsWith("Windows")) {           
                    if (os.startsWith("Windows 9") || os.startsWith("Windows Me")) 
                    // Windows 9x/Me               
                         cmd = "start " + file;
else
                    // Windows NT/2000/XP               
                         cmd = "cmd /c start " + file;
p = Runtime.getRuntime().exec(cmd);            
catch(IOException x)
// couldn't exec browser
System.err.println("Could not invoke browser, command=" + cmd);
}

  • Print System.out.println messages into logs of Weblogic Application Server

    Hi,
    I use Weblogic Application Server 10.3.6 on Windows 7. The Enterprise Application (J2EE) is deployed into the 'AdminServer' of Weblogic. For debugging purpose, I have added a few System.out.println statements.
    I am unable to see the print messages on any of log files available in path 'user_projects > domains > base_domain > servers > AdminServer > logs'. However, I can see them on the 'command' prompt which was used to start the server. How can I get them into one of the log files? What am I missing?
    I tried reading other threads on the forum and as per them 'System.out.println' gets logged onto *.out logs which I am unable to find. Only base_domain.log, AdminServer.log, access.log are available in the location.
    More Specifics:
    Configuration on WLS console 'Home > Servers > AdminServer > Logging'
    Log file name: logs/AdminServer.log
    Min. Severity to log: Notice (tried with Debug as well)
    Advanced Options:
    Logging Implementation: JDK
    Redirect stdout logging enabled: False (tried both options)
    Log file Severity Level: Notice (tried with Debug as well)
    Standard Out Severity Level: Notice (tried with Debug as well)
    Thanks

    Paul,
    I just found this on google:
    'Generally, developers put a lot of System.out.println statements in their code to perform application debugging. Normally, all standard outputs and error outputs are routed to the console where the OC4J server is started. If you want to capture the standard output and error outputs to files for logging/debugging purposes, then you can use the -out and -err options while starting up the Oc4J server to specify which files to use.'.

  • System.out.println logged to ?

    I am using Oracle 9ias 9.0.3 java edition.
    I have deployed a war file successfully using EM.
    i HAVE System.out.println statements in my servlets. I was unable to find any documents which tell me where these statements will be logged?
    Any one help me.

    Go to server properties page of OEM and edit OC4J options under Command Line Options. You will have to specify the OC4J option -out filename to capture the System.out messages. You can also specify the option -err filename to capture all the errors.

  • Synchronized use of System.out.println()

    So I am again at the point of part of my program running ahead of itself out of the call stack and ruining the sequence or order of printing.
    I read that System.out.println() is synchronized so how may it be used to wait() until notified to continue and not ruin the output?

    jverd wrote:
    Always Learning wrote:
    YES SIR EJP! SIR! I thank you for the assistance because using only System.out and synchronizing worked beautifully.You said you're not using multiple threads. If this is true, then there's no reason to synchronize anything. The output will appear on System.out in exactly the order you send it there.
    Nos if only I could figure out dependencies to make it work with out and err.You have to stop and think about it for a minute. You know that when you call println() on either one of those two streams, the output may be buffered an not necessarily go immediately to the console. From that you can reason that if you call out.println() first, and then err.println(), that you could end up with err's buffer getting flushed first, and the output appearing on the console in a different order than that in which your code executed the calls.
    You are of course not surprised by this, given that you know that out and err are completely independent and just happen to end up at the same destination in this particular case.
    So, as a first guess, you might reasonably think that, since buffering is obviously the culprit here, calling flush() on each stream after each print() or println() call should eliminate the problem. In a multithreaded environment, this wouldn't be sufficient, of course, but it's a logical approach to try here.
    Another tidbit to make note of is that the System class has setOut() and setErr() calls. Since you're looking at out and err in the same console, you presumably don't care about the distinction between them (which makes me wonder why you're using them both in the first place, instead of just using one). If you're just going to mush them together into the same console anyway, then you can use setOut() or setErr() to make them the same stream, and things will be ordered as you expect.Very interesting Jverd and I think there may yet be life in what I would like to do. I did not know or was not immediately aware of these things. I will give it a try.
    To answer your question, I am using them both because, like logging, they are distinct in the Eclipse console (black for out and red for err). With your patch I just tried that distinction has faded but the output is sequenced the same so I do appreciate you noting this. Learn something new in Java each time I am doing a project. I considered using logging and putting errors in a window but I am not sure if I should do that; just not enough experience with it.

  • System.out.println() Ignored

    I have a open source JDBC driver which has to be enhanced.
    It is compiled with ant. I tried to code in my new methods for enhancing it and wanted to print the intermediate variables through System.out.println(). This particular line for printing onto the console is ignored and remaining code is working fine.
    Can someone tell me where I went wrong?

    Junnu wrote:
    Can someone tell me where I went wrong?You went wrong in assuming that line is "ignored." It's not. So one of the following must be true:
    1. That line is never reached because the code branch it's in is not executed.
    2. That line is never reached because an exception occurs.
    3. That line is being executed, but System.out has been redirected away from the console by System.setOut().
    4. That line is being executed, but System.out has been redirected away from the console by the command line, such as using > in linux.
    5. That line is being executed, but there's an error. Try System.out.checkError().
    6. That line is being executed, but System.out's buffer has not filled up so it's not appearing on the terminal. System.out.flush() would fix this, but this is not a likely scenario. I think that System.out is created with autoflushing enabled, but I may be mistaken.

  • Does System.out.println() has a limit ?

    I have this little program that permuates strings
    public class PermutationGenerator
         private void perm(String s, String prefix)
              int length = s.length();
              if (length== 0)
              System.out.println(prefix);
              else
                   for (int i = 0; i < length; i++)
                        perm(s.substring(0, i) + s.substring(i+1, length), prefix + s.charAt(i));
         public void printPermutations(String s)
              perm(s,"");
         public static void main(String[] args)
         new PermutationGenerator().printPermutations("word") ;
    The problem is that when I use a longer string like "longword", I only get 299 different permutations printed. Even if I use an "evenlongerword", I will get 299 permutations. Is this because of java? Because I can't see any errors in my code.

    You probably need to change your command prompt
    screen buffer size. Sounds like you have the height
    set to 300 lines. You can also redirect your output
    to a file to see everything.Very well spotted! The voice of experience!

  • Is there a way to make system.out.println() scroll down as it goes?

    I am writing a program where I want to be able to read what's printed out in the console of my IDE through System.out.println() as the program runs/after the program runs. However, right now I run the program, the message prints out, and then when I go to read it the scroll bar is all the way up so I can see only the top of the print-out (the first thing printed out). Is there any way I can get the console to scroll along with the text, kind of like floating boxes you see on various websites for various reasons? In other words, can I get it so that when I look in the console at any given moment of the program running, I am looking at the newest text printed out (the text at the bottom of the "page")? Thank you!

    That would be an IDE problem and not a Java one. You could redirect output into a text file so you can read at your leisure and scroll up and down as much as you like.

  • Is there a way to force System.out.println to run when called

    I working on my first threaded program and having a hard time debugging. I've used System.out.println to let me know what's going on but due (I assume) to the nature of threads the output is not sequential. Is there a way to force println to execute immediatly so that they show up in the order they were called?
    Thanks --- Mike

    --- MikeI don't use Netbeans, but I would guess that it too pipes Standard Out and Standard Error to the same console. You didn't address my comment. Are you printing to System.err as well? This happens implicitly if you use Exception.printStackTrace(), for example.

  • 32-bit JDK 7 System.out.println not working in IDE

    Hi folks,
    I have a 64-bit Windows 7 OS.
    Due to 3rd party library/jar dependencies, i had to install the 32-bit Java JDK 1.7 and Eclipse IDE.
    I also installed NetBeans.
    So i have a 64-bit OS and am running 32-bit Java JDK/JRE & IDEs.
    The problem I am having is that my program's System.out.println("...") statements are not outputting strings to either IDE debug console.
    Executing the compiled program from a command line/prompt produces the expected string output.
    The basic "Hello, World" program is enough to cause this behaviour to start occurring.
    I have not manually / intentionally changed any IDE-specific Debug Console or Windows environment settings.
    One caveat: This same environment has worked successfully in the past ?! Yes, this is one of those "..it worked last week & yesterday and today it isn't and i swear i didn't do anything..." issue.
    Thoughts ?

    Thanks for the reply.
    The 64-bit versions of Java & Eclipse were installed first.
    When i discovered I had to use the 32-bit versions, i un-installed the 64-bit ones & installed the 32-bits.
    Even after that initial un-install 64-bit/install 32-bit process, it was working.
    I have also been installing the Windows 7 64-bit OS updates when i am informed of them.
    I'm not sure if any of these would affect how the Eclipse / NetBeans IDEs behave.
    Behaviour has been inconsistent.
    Initially it was always working.
    But over the past several days, it has been working less and less.
    I don't have any large data structures.
    This isn't a large complicated program, couple hundred lines, so i highly doubt that i'm doing anything to the resources, but something has changed.
    The main project I am working on takes command line parameters, does some initial processing, produces output using System.out.printlns [SOP] then depending on the parameters, branches into 2 different processing paths, let's call them A & B. Each of these processing paths also use SOPs. When i run the program in the IDE going thru path A, sometimes the initial SOP statements will work and the SOP statements specific to path A will also work. If i immediately change the parameters to go thru path B & re-run it, not even the initial SOP statements before the branching decision work.
    I've tried doing System.flush()s too - no affect.
    I haven't tried the re-direction option to a file option you mentioned yet.
    It always works from a command prompt - that is telling me that the Java SOPs are working properly, correct ?
    Inside an Eclipse or NetBeans IDE, SOP output to the debug console is inconsistent.
    Running from a command prompt, the SOPs always work.
    It'd help to know if this an IDE issue, a Java issue, a Windows 7 issue so i can narrow down where to try and correct the situation.
    I have a Windows XP VM set up, i'll try running the program there and see if there's a difference.
    Thanks for your reply.
