Redirect STDOUT

[yong]

Hi all

I’m writting a program to detect the cursor position with the vt100
command “\x1b[6n”.

So I need to redirect STDOUT to a string.

How can I do this?

Thanks

I suggest looking at the code for the win2console library, which gives
an example of something similar.

Oh bother! That should be “win32console”.

Thank you very much.

Now I can use STDOUT.reopen to redirect STDOUT output to a file.But How
can I redirect it to a string?

Thanks.

Thanks.

use backticks:

string = your_cmd.exe

substitution works like double quotes

cmd = “your_cmd.exe”
string = #{ cmd }

-a

You don’t.

You should avoid touching STDOUT and STDERR as much as possible.

Instead assign a StringIO to $stdout.

see “ri StringIO”

#!/usr/bin/ruby

require ‘stringio’

mystring=""
sstring=StringIO.open(mystring,“w+”)

#STDOUT.reopen(sstring) #can’t work
stdoutbackup=$stdout
$stdout=sstring

print “BUFFERED TEXT\r\n”

$stdout=stdoutbackup
print mystring
<<<

It works.

Thank you very much.

sstring = StringIO.new will suffice.

#STDOUT.reopen(sstring) #can’t work
stdoutbackup=$stdout
$stdout=sstring

print “BUFFERED TEXT\r\n”

$stdout=stdoutbackup

I tend to wrap this up in a method that yields. See util_capture in
ZenTest’s test/zentest_assertions.rb
