Creating a permanent log of messages on the JForex platform at Dukascopy

Hi

I have an automated strategy running on the JForex platform at Dukascopy

My strategy outputs quite a lot of data..............using myConsole.getOut().println(....);

When I click on my strategy name tag at the bottom of the platform screen I see only a few lines from my strategy output (being the latest output)

What do I need to do, to capture ALL output ?

private IConsole myConsole = null;
myConsole = context.getConsole();

For example do you mean: write the output to a file?

What package is the IConsole class in?  What methods does it have that might be useful?

yes - write the output to a file is what I am seeking.

The package:-
public class XXX implements IStrategy {

I was asking what package the IConsole class was in.  What import statement do you use to be able to use the IConsole class?  Were is the class file located?

If you want to write the lines written using the IConsole class's methods, you should read the API doc for that class to see if it has any useful methods for writing those lines to a file.

For example the System.out object in Java SE has methods that allow the code to intercept what is written with calls to System.out.println() so it can be written to a disk file.

Is the following example what I should be adapting ?

Sorry, I do not know anything about the classes in the com.dukascopy.api packages.  Is there a website or forum for classses in those packages?

So your "strategy name tag" only shows you the last few lines of the output? Sounds like it might be configured to discard old output after some point. You could look at its configuration and see if there's something there which you could do differently.

Hi Paul

I agree completely
I have posted a query to Dukascopy Support but their response is yet to come
I must say their support is piteful
