Try the modified code below, it should help to have a better output : no
blank,
no empty line and should be valid on the 3 systems: linux, win and mac.
Cheers,
Xavier.

Hi,
This subject has been upp before, but I can not get it to work in our
app. We need/want to make sure that runtime exceptions such as
NullPointerException etc. should be logged together in our log file that
is managed by log4j. I have found some old emails on this mailing list
where the suggestion was to write your own Outputstream to get it to
work. I have tried to use that code, but we get a bunch of
space-characters in our logfile.
Is there any easier way in redirecting System.err to log4j?
Any suggestion would help.
Code below.
Thanks.
