Hello,
In theory with the new version you will not need to do any redirection. However I think there may be a few messages which are not sent through the proper logging API which may still be there. So i would ask, yes use it with no redirection and report all log/messages which you get printed to the console then we can try and fix those specific cases.

Michael,

You are quite right! I had not recognised the content of the source file
until you pointed it out to me. That is the result of option 2 which calls
brailleBlaster with a partial command line where the user only specifies the
input file and so the result is correctly being displayed back to the
console.

In my batch program I have modified all the calls to include the "2>" output
to the log file. For example, here is the command for option3 (full command
line mode specifying both input and output files)
java -jar brailleblaster.jar translate %bPath%%inputFile%
%bPath%%outputFile% 2> brlblaster.log

brlblaster.log is being generated and placed in the
c:\programs/brailleblaster directory. His is all very satisfactory. There is
no feedback to the console so the "2>" has done the trick for the needs of
my users.

Many thanks to everyone. I am delighted to know that I now have a log file
that I can examine if anything goes wrong in the future.

I'll try the new version of brailleblaster and see if I need to pipe the
output with "2> brlblaster.log" any more. With your new amendment isn't that
material now going to the official log file? If so, I can drop it from my
batch program

All the best,

Cearbhall

Hello,
What you included in your message looks like it might be intended output,
but I am not very familiar with the command line interface.

After you got BrailleBlaster to perform the translation it looks like the
output is the translation into Braille.

To have the translation sent to a file call BrailleBlaster like:
java -jar brailleblaster.jar translate infile.xml outfile.utd
2>brailleblaster.log

Michael,

Interesting point! The output is different now. I used:
java -jar brailleblaster.jar translate %bPath%%inputFile% 2>
brlblaster.log And this is the output to the screen (still not going
to the output.log file
though!):

Administrator:  brailleBlaster process Assistant

Could you suggest the actual command line string for me? I am new to
this type of work, sorry. I want to hide this trace-type output from
the user but still capture it in a log file. I cannot modify the java
source code so I have to do it in the batch program if possible.

All the best,

Cearbhall

Hello,
Logging output I believe is going to standard error (stderr). Try
using
2> instead of > in your redirection.

Keith,

I think it would be best in time to manage the logging. However,
there will be times when it is useful again. For that reason, I would
like to find a way to pipe it for now.

I have tried the command line:
        java -jar brailleblaster.jar translate %bPath%%inputFile%   >
brailleblst.log


but this does nothing1

I imagine the two input and output parameters are making the piping
irrelevant to the brailleblaster.jar call. Any ideas?


All the best,

Hi Cearbhall.

That is all logging from LibLouisUTDML and is telling you what
actions and styles are being applied. We really do need to turn down
the default logging though because that's a bit much most of the time.

Hi Larry,

Thanks for the welcome.

I wonder if you can help me to understand what is being displayed on
the command.cmd window when I run brailleblaster in batch mode under

Windows 7?

Here is a typical output screen:

Administrator:  brailleBlaster process Assistant 7ie keybo>d71 x
copies :at y type 6! _+beep.txt_: file4 Finish end_style Begin
start_style Finish start_style Begin insert_translation Begin
end_style Begin insert_translation
     ,3trol-;,z w 5d ! 8copy0
process4
Finish end_style
Begin start_style
Finish start_style
Begin insert_translation
Begin end_style
Begin insert_translation
     7,3trol-;,g wd probably n "w
if y type x 9 say ,notepad7
Finish end_style
Begin start_style
Finish start_style
Begin end_style
Begin insert_translation
Finish end_style
---------------------------------------------------------------------

It looks like some sort of trace!
    I clear the screen after the brailleBlaster program has finished
so that my batch menu appears clearly. However, the output above
appears once the program is running and so I wonder if I can pipe it
to a file, if it is important to retain it, or if I can suppress this
output by a setting in brailleBlaster?


All the best,

Cearbhall
