How to write Exception output to a file

[biswa]

Hi,
I am trying to write Exception to a file instead of writing to Tomcat
Consol. But i can't find any API that will return me complete Error
Message. Exception.getMessage() returns me only one line description
of error message. I want to write Exception.printStackTrace() output
to file.

May be i am missing something in docs.

Please help.
Thanks.
biswa.

What about
<http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs...ble.html#printStackTrace(java.io.PrintStream)>

or

<http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs...ble.html#printStackTrace(java.io.PrintWriter)>
