[resolved] appending/inserting tSystem Output to a (log) file

[Anonymous]

I'm trying to figure out how to append the value of ((String)globalMap.get("tSystem_1_OUTPUT")) to an output file. I've got my standard and error outputs both going "to global variable."
I originally thought maybe I could use a tFixedFlowInput, but the other issue to contend with is that my standard output has the potential to be large... like, according to a text editor i used to look at one set of output (see 3rd pic): Byte count = 95,923

Ok, I found a way. But if anyone knows of an easier way to do this, I am all ears!

!((String)globalMap.get("tSystem_1_OUTPUT")).equals(null)
|| 
!(((String)globalMap.get("tSystem_1_ERROROUTPUT")) == null)
|| 
!(((String)globalMap.get("tSystem_1_ERROR_MESSAGE")) == null)
