I don't know if you have seen my other post about this, but swallowOutput seems to be a little flaky in its implementation. Although I have it enabled for my context, only _some_ of the std out from the context gets redirected properly. I tried searching thru the Tomcat source code to see where this magic happens and to see if I can catch where the problem lies, but got miserably lost looking at any source that relates to swallowOutput. So I would tread lightly if wanting to use swallowOutput; I'm not convinced that it is working perfectly.
