Class StreamGobbler

java.lang.Object

java.lang.Thread

jodd.io.StreamGobbler

All Implemented Interfaces:

java.lang.Runnable

public class StreamGobbler
extends java.lang.Thread

Consumes a stream. For any Process, the input and error streams must read even if the data written to these streams is not used by the application. The generally accepted solution for this problem is a stream gobbler thread that does nothing but consume data from an input stream until stopped.
