Question

Im using a thirdparty class that has the following method:

public void print(PrintStream s);

But what I want to do is acually log the output. SOmething like:

RecordingPrintStream p = new RecordingPrintStream
instance.print(p);
logger.log(p.getContents());

So what can I use as my RecordingPrintStream?

Answer 1

Something like:

ByteArrayOutputStream baos = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
PrintStream recordingStream = new PrintStream(baos);
instance.print(recordingStream);
logger.log(baos.toString());
