Sorry Chris I just don't have time to try and figure this one out. If it
works uses it.

Yeah, this was all new to me. Before this I didn't know anything about
jtreg IO other than the use of OutputAnalyzer for capture and verification.
Thanks for reviewing.

Hi Chris,
It looks good to me.
It is a little bit more complicated than one would expect but reasonable.
Thanks,

I looked into modifying OutputAnalyzer (actually ended up being
ProcessTools that needed all the changes) to be more flexible so it
could support LingeredApp. The problem I ran into is that
ProcessTools is all static, but I needed to create and return a
context. It ended up being too much disruption, so I instead have
the ProcessTools.getOutput() code as part of LingeredApp.
Another thing I discovered is that you can use OutputAnalyzer with
already generated output, so this option is still available to users
of LingeredApp. You just need to do something like:
OutputAnalyzer out = new
OutputAnalyzer(lingeredApp.getOutput().getStdout(),
lingeredApp.getOutput().getStderr());
I didn't change any test to take advantage of this, but it's there
if someone wants it.
I've included another webrev below (completely different from the
original). In the end, all LingeredApp stdout and stderr is dumped
after the app exits. The old way of storing away the stdout using an
InputGobbler is gone. Since getAppOutput() depended on this, and the
new way of saving stdout saves it as one big string rather than a
List of lines, getAppOutput() needed some changes to convert to the
List form.

Hi David,
Just to clarify one point, most of the tests that use
OutputAnalyzer do not display process output unless there is an
error. So part of the decision here with LingeredApp is when to
display the output. Currently the stdout is captured, but not
displayed, unless the tests does the work to display it, which none
do. Currently stderr goes to the console. Note that some negative
tests actually cause some expected stderr output, although the
tests don't check for it.
One thought I just had is to create an async option for
OutputAnalyzer so it doesn't block until the process exits.
Basically that means splitting ProcessTools.getOutput() so it
doesn't block. What I currently have is essentially doing that. It
copies ProcessTools.getOutput(), splitting it into two parts. But
all this logic is in LingeredApp, and of course doesn't have any of
the output error checking support that OutputAnalyzer, which might
be useful for LingeredApp. For example, the negative tests only
test that launching the app failed. They could be improved by
checking for specific error output.

I'm afraid I'm losing track of this change.
The key thing is that we should not have a test that launches any
other process for which we can not see the output of that process.

Hi,
I've resolved the issues I had before with not seeing all the
stderr output when I tried to capture it. What I'd like to do
now is have us decide how the output should be handled from the
perspective a LingeredApp user (driver app). Currently all
LingeredApp stdout is captured and gets be returned the the
driver app by calling app.getAppOutput(). It does not appear in
the .jtr file, but the test would have the option of dumping it
there it it cared to. Only one test uses app.getAppOutput().
Currently all the LingeredApp stderr is redirected to the
console, so it does not appear in the .jtr file.
Just a general comment to make sure I understand it and ensure
we are in sync.
It seems much more safe to always have both stdout and stderr
outputs present in the .jtr automatically file independently of
of what the test does.
So how do we want this changed? Some possibilities are:
(1) capture stderr just like stdout currently is, and leave is
up the the driver app to decide if it wants to display it
(after the app terminates).
It does not look good to me (see above) but maybe I'm missing
something important here.
(2) capture stderr just like stdout currently is, but have
LingeredApp automatically send captured output to driver app's
stdout and stderr (after the app terminates).
The stdout and std err will be separated in this case, right?
Do you have a webrev for this?
I currently have it working like this, although I need to fix
LingeredApp.getAppOutput(). I had to make it return a single
String instead of a List of Strings, so this breaks the one test
that uses this API. It's easily fixed. Just haven't gotten around
to it yet.
(3) send the LingeredApp's stdout and stderr to the driver
app's stdout as it is being captured (this was the original fix
Igor suggested and the webrev supported). A minor alternative
to this is to keep the two streams separated instead of sending
both to stdout.
Let me know what you think. I'm inclined to go with 2,
especially since normally there is little to no output from the
LingeredApp.
The choice (2) looks good enough.
Not sure it is that important to have output from stdout and
stderr sync'ed
but is is important to have the stderr present in the .jtr
automatically.
The choice (3) looks even better if it is going to work well.
This is basically what the original webrev did. It sent
LingeredApp's stderr and stdout to the the driver apps stdout.
It's a 1 word change to make it send stderr to stderr. I think it
has a bug though that did not manifest itself. It seems the new
copy() code that is capturing stdout would be contending with the
existing InputGlobbler code that is doing the same. I would need
to fix this to make sure LingeredApp.getAppOutput() still returns
all the apps stdout output.

Not sure, it is really necessary.
