stdout/stderr, logging, & maya's script editor

[deanareeno]

Hey all,

I implemented a version of the following into a module (the checkmarked answer version):

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/19855288/duplicate-stdout-stderr-in-qtextedit-widget

(the OutputWrapper class and handleOutput method specifcally)

...and it's working in the sense that if I call:

sys.stdout.write('Here's stdout')

sys.stdout.write('Here's stderr')

...I see each in Maya's script editor and my pyqt widget. I've also imported logging, set the logging level to INFO, and added a StreamHandler for stdout & stderr in my main module. 

What's driving me nuts is that I *only* see output in both the Script Editor and my widget if I do explicit sys.std*.write() calls in my module. Any imported functions or methods that have logging enabled passing INFO level messages or even traceback errors show up *only* in the script editor.

I tried changing the self._stream lines in the stackoverflow example to use maya.utils.Output()/ maya.utils.Output(error=1), and even sys.__stdout__/sys.__stderr__ directly, but I get the same results (with slightly different formatting).

Any ideas to point me in the right direction?

Cheers,

-DW

The comment on that answer seems to answer your or problem here. While you are changing the sys.stdout reference you are only doing it at a point in time. Any module that gets loaded earlier and grabs a reference will have the original.
I thought there were already some Maya utilities for interfacing with the script editor? Maya has its own references that it moves into private stdout/stderr
