在java中与Swing GUI一起打开一个控制台

Question

I am building an application with a Swing GUI. If you would would open this program from the command line, Some text will print (info and error messages). The program is just a normal executable jar file, but for the people who want to see a console I want an option to open a console from the Swing GUI, which displays all these messages, outputted by System.out.print() . I have seen several applications which have such a function, but I don't know how to do this.

Answer 1

The basics are explained at https://blogs.oracle.com/nickstephen/entry/java_redirecting_system_out_and . That example uses logging to redirect stdout and stderr. A simple approach could be to first define an OutputStream that writes to the "console":

package outerr;

import java.io.ByteArrayOutputStream;
import java.io.IOException;
import javax.swing.JTextArea;

public class PrintOutErrStream extends ByteArrayOutputStream {

final int maxTextAreaSize = 1000;
private JTextArea textArea;
public PrintOutErrStream(JTextArea textArea) {
    this.textArea = textArea;
}

public void flush() throws IOException {
    synchronized(this) {
        super.flush();
        String outputStr = this.toString();
        super.reset();
        if(textArea.getText().length() > maxTextAreaSize) {
            textArea.replaceRange("", 0, 100);
        }
        textArea.append(outputStr);
    }
}
}

Then this is the remaining part of a demo program:

package outerr;

import java.io.PrintStream;

public class StdOutErr extends javax.swing.JFrame {

/** Creates new form StdOutErr */
public StdOutErr() {
    initComponents();
    PrintOutErrStream poes = new PrintOutErrStream(this.jTextAreaOutErrLog);
    System.setErr(new PrintStream(poes, true));
    System.setOut(new PrintStream(poes, true));
}

 * initialize the form.
 * WARNING: Do NOT modify this code. The content of this

    jScrollPaneOutErrLog = new javax.swing.JScrollPane();
    jTextAreaOutErrLog = new javax.swing.JTextArea();

    setDefaultCloseOperation(javax.swing.WindowConstants.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);
    getContentPane().setLayout(new java.awt.FlowLayout());

    jButtonStdout.setText("stdout");
    jButtonStdout.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {
        public void actionPerformed(java.awt.event.ActionEvent evt) {
            jButtonStdoutActionPerformed(evt);
        }
    });
    getContentPane().add(jButtonStdout);

    jButtonStderr.setText("stderr");
    jButtonStderr.addActionListener(new java.awt.event.ActionListener() {

    javax.swing.GroupLayout jPanelOutErrLogLayout = new javax.swing.GroupLayout(jPanelOutErrLog);
    jPanelOutErrLog.setLayout(jPanelOutErrLogLayout);

            .addComponent(jScrollPaneOutErrLog, javax.swing.GroupLayout.DEFAULT_SIZE, 378, Short.MAX_VALUE))
    );

    getContentPane().add(jPanelOutErrLog);

    pack();
