Even with the "scroll lock" option enabled for the Eclipse console, eventually it overfills and starts auto-scrolling on me.
Is there some way of increasing the capacity of the console so that it stores more lines? I wasn't able to find the option.
It can be changed by going to Windows --> Preferences --> Run/Debug --> Console and then unchecking "Limit Console Output" which is ON by default. This works on STS any version too. This would help printing complete console output. For a Mac it is Eclipse > Preferences > Run/Debug > Console.
Eclipse Indigo has a default console buffer size of 250000 characters. Eclipse also provides a check box Limit Console Output to put enforce a limit on console output, In order to increase console output either you can uncheck this box or you can increase the console buffer size.
From the menu bar, Window → Show View → Console. Alternately, use the keyboard shortcut: Mac: Option - Command - Q , then C , or. Windows: Alt - Shift - Q , then C.
Under Window > Preferences
, go to the Run/Debug > Console
section, then you should see an option "Limit console output." You can uncheck this or change the number in the "Console buffer size (characters)" text box below.
(This is in Galileo, Helios CDT, Kepler, Juno, Luna, Mars, Neon, Oxygen and 2018-09)
Open the Windows > Preferences menu.
Expand the Run/Debug > Console preferences.
Set the Console buffer size (characters)
to something much bigger. 2147383647
/ ~2GB is the upper limit (or 1000000
/ ~1MB in older releases). Or just uncheck the Limit console output
.
