Redirect system.out into FileAppender

Hi,

is it possible to redirect the normal system.out or system.err into a FileAppender defined through log4j.

I have the problem that I´m using a 3rd-party application, that uses System.out.println() in it´s code and I´d like to combine this with my other log4j-configurations into one single file currently defined through a FileAppender. Any idea how to do that?

Thanks
Thomas

Almost this exact same question was answered very recently and rather
brilliantly by Michael Erskine here:
