System.out.print("hello");
Thread.sleep(1000); // Just to give the user a chance to see "hello".
System.out.print("\b\b\b\b\b");
System.out.print("world");
@Before
public void dontPrintExceptions() {
// get rid of the stack trace prints for expected exceptions
System.setErr(new PrintStream(new NullStream()));
}
BalusC answer didn't work for me (bash console on Ubuntu). Some stuff remained at the end of the line. So I rolled over again with spaces. Thread.sleep() is used in the below snippet so you can see what's happening.
String foo = "the quick brown fox jumped over the fence";
System.out.printf(foo);
try {Thread.sleep(1000);} catch (InterruptedException e) {}
System.out.printf("%s", mul("\b", foo.length()));
try {Thread.sleep(1000);} catch (InterruptedException e) {}
System.out.printf("%s", mul(" ", foo.length()));
try {Thread.sleep(1000);} catch (InterruptedException e) {}
System.out.printf("%s", mul("\b", foo.length()));
其中 mul是一个简单的方法,定义如下:
private static String mul(String s, int n) {
StringBuilder builder = new StringBuilder();
for (int i = 0; i < n ; i++)
builder.append(s);
return builder.toString();
}
this solution is applicable if you want to remove some System.out.println() output. It restricts that output to print on console and print other outputs.
PrintStream ps = System.out;
System.setOut(new PrintStream(new OutputStream() {
@Override
public void write(int b) throws IOException {}
}));
System.out.println("It will not print");
//To again enable it.
System.setOut(ps);
System.out.println("It will print");
