Method Detail

flushContents

public void flushContents()
Empties the contents of this stream monitor's underlying buffer.


setBuffered

public void setBuffered(boolean buffer)
Sets whether the contents of this monitor's underlying stream should be buffered. When false, contents appended to this stream monitor are not stored in a buffer, and are thus not available from getContents(). Registered listeners are notified of appended text, and must buffer the contents if desired.

Parameters:
buffer - whether the contents of this monitor's underlying stream should be buffered

isBuffered

public boolean isBuffered()
Returns whether the contents of this monitor's underlying stream is buffered.

Returns:
whether the contents of this monitor's underlying stream is buffered
