Hi

After reading the message below about using ecsobject.output(out), I tried
converting a few of our servlets to this manner -- we are currently using
out.println(ecsobject.toString())

A snippet of my code is as follows:

ByteArrayOutputStream bytes = new ByteArrayOutputStream(1024);
PrintWriter out = new PrintWriter(bytes,true);          
Document doc = (Document)format.getFormattedData();  // this is an ECS page 
doc.output(out);
res.setContentLength(bytes.size());
bytes.writeTo(res.getOutputStream());

This results in a blank page in IE.

If I don't bother using the ByteArrayOutputStream for persistent connections

then the page is sent correctly, i.e.:

PrintWriter out = res.getWriter();
Document doc = (Document)format.getFormattedData();
doc.output(out);

Anyone tell me why the latter works, whilst the former does not?

simplest solution don't use out.println(ecsobject.toString()); do this
instead.

ecsobject.output(out);

toString() is a VERY expensive operation and will increases you memory usage
by
at least 2x.  I'm generating large ecs data structures ( 8 meg files ) and
using
output(out); and it works just fine.
