Output to the printer from within an application must be
possible, but no one mentions it. I can't beleive that
one must always print everything to the screen and then
click on the printer dialog box.
There are times when you would like to print a large
report from within an application. In C++, one would do:
extern ofstream pout; // a file is created
pout.open("foo"); // the file is opened
pout << "send this to printer"; // material is put in file
pout.close; // the file "foo" is closed
system ("lm -c foo; rm foo"); // the file "foo" is sent
// to the printer and then deleted
Pretty simple. How does one do the same thing in Java?
Thanks
