Method Detail

flushContents

void flushContents()

Empties the contents of this stream monitor's underlying buffer.

setBuffered

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.
