The below code gets all of the output, whether stdout or stderr.
String line = String.format("paty/to/script.py");
CommandLine cmd = CommandLine.parse(line);
DefaultExecutor executor = new DefaultExecutor();
ByteArrayOutputStream stdout = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
PumpStreamHandler psh = new PumpStreamHandler(stdout);
executor.setStreamHandler(psh);
int exitvalue = executor.execute(cmd);
String output = stdout.toString();
How can I get both streams separately?
PumpStreamHandler
takes a second constructor argument for stderr. The constructor with only one OutputStream
will have both stdout and stderr being written to it, as you observed.
See
https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-exec/apidocs/org/apache/commons/exec/PumpStreamHandler.html
So an approach as the following should handle it.
String line = String.format("paty/to/script.py");
CommandLine cmd = CommandLine.parse(line);
DefaultExecutor executor = new DefaultExecutor();
ByteArrayOutputStream stdout = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
ByteArrayOutputStream stderr = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
PumpStreamHandler psh = new PumpStreamHandler(stdout, stderr);
executor.setStreamHandler(psh);
int exitvalue = executor.execute(cmd);
String output = stdout.toString();
String error = stderr.toString();
