Is it possible to capture Java's stdout/stderr?

[Alan Brogan]

Thank you for pyjnius

I have been successfully using it to write Python scripts which call a (proprietary) Java API. No problems so far, but one minor annoyance: whenever I initialize their API they send a lot of info to stdout which gets lost because (in production) the script is run on a headless server. Similarly, when I cause a crash in their API the stack dump  gets written to Java's stderr and also lost.

So far I've been working around this by running from a top level bash script and redirecting at that level, but that loses context - e.g. for a stackdump I get the Java trace in one log, and the subsequent Python traceback in another.

I'd much prefer to capture Java's stdout/err from within the Python script and send it to my normal Python logging. Is this possible?

Hi,

I always wanted to try it, but never got time / usage for.

On Android, i know there is a permission for that: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/Manifest.permission.html#READ_LOGS

So somewhere, you might have API too to access it. Feel free to share your end result :)
