I haven't used Orion in years but I remember using System.out.println and having it work consistently.
When it doesn't work, are you starting Orion differently?
Thanks for that confirmation Ben. I'm more condfident about using that technique now.
I just re-compiled and tried it again and what didn't work now does!
I always start Orion up exactly the same way so I'm now thinking that the erratic behaviour I mentioned was most likely a result of my
own erratic behaviour... Perhaps forgetting to re-compile (unlikely), or forgetting to move the re-compiled stuff to "classes" (that's probably it
).
But it's nice to know println's to the Orion console should work consistently. I was afraid it might be some issue with print buffers that needed flushing or suchlike, so thanks again!
