Hong-Thai Nguyen commented on PDFBOX-2054: ------------------------------------------ Yes, we use PDFbox via Tika in many connectors. We direct out & err separately in logs files, and log4j in other file with something like this: java -Dlog4j.configuration=file:log4j.properties -cp CP_PATH runClass ^>%LOG_FOLDER%\out.txt 2^>%LOG_FOLDER%\err.txt Normally, we expect that all log must be group in log4j (with configuration on logger, level ...), out.txt and err.txt are reserved for something else. Otherwise, printStackTrace() & out.println() mentions nothing about date/time and more less controllable. > Remove System.out.println() > --------------------------- > > Key: PDFBOX-2054 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PDFBOX-2054 > Project: PDFBox > Issue Type: Bug > Affects Versions: 1.8.4, 1.8.5, 1.8.6, 2.0.0 > Reporter: Hong-Thai Nguyen > Priority: Minor > > For example at GlyfSimpleDescript.java > {code} > ... > catch (ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException e) > { > System.out.println("error: array index out of bounds"); > } > {code} > and also 'printStackTrace' like in PageDrawer.java: > {code} > ... > catch( IOException io ) > { > io.printStackTrace(); > } > {code} > Should forward exception or keep silence. -- This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.2#6252)
