JBoss Output window

[tejasab]

Hi,
I am not able to understand this behaviour of JBoss. I have EJBs deployed on JBoss and EJBs use System.out.println statements to print debug information.

Now, the interesting part :
I have written a client in Java and invoking methods on the EJBs. Now if I have the window in which JBoss is running open and if I am holding the scroller on the scroll bar, the methods take time to execute, as if they are paused and waiting to print the System.out debug messages.
If the window is minimized, the methods execute as I would expect.

Is this behaviour normal, or this is specific to JBoss ? Also, I am curious as to why this behaviour ?

Many Thanks,
Tejas

I assume you are using windows. This has nothing to do with jboss, but is a feature of the os you can turn off in the console properties. I think it is called quick edit mode or something.

Yes I am running JBoss under Windows NT OS.
However, I tried to set/reset console properties, but I am not able to change this behaviour.

Any other ideas....

Many Thanks

umm, well the easiest way to avoid it is to not do it? Is it really causing hassles?

the solution i found was to change the configuration for the log4j and change the configuration to display only fatal error messages.
