hi, I'm using a 3rd-party python program that uses the python logging facility and also makes calls to os.system. I'm trying to capture its output to a file.
In my own code, I've taken control of the loggers that are setup in the other program by removing its StreamHandler and replacing with FileHander. But when it comes to the call to os.system I'm at a loss. I want to capture the stdout from that os.system call in my FileHandler. I thought this might work, before I call the other program's class/method: sys.stdout = getLogger('status').handlers[0].stream but no dice. Is there any clean way to get what I want? If not, I guess I'll override the other method with my own, but it will basically be a bunch of code copied with os.sytem replaced with subprocess, using getLogger('status').handlers[0].stream for stdout/ stderr. thanks, --Tim Arnold -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
