     [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-1369?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:all-tabpanel ]

Tibor Digana closed SUREFIRE-1369.
----------------------------------
    Resolution: Unresolved

Redirecting stream and forking has nothing to do with ANSI colors.
If you have native problem, report a bug in https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG

>                 Key: SUREFIRE-1369
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SUREFIRE-1369
>             Project: Maven Surefire
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: Maven Surefire Plugin
>    Affects Versions: 2.20
>         Environment: Windows 10 64-bit, 10.0.14393
>            Reporter: Gili

> I invoke the following native code from inside a unit test:
> {{GetConsoleScreenBufferInfo(GetStdHandle(STD_OUTPUT_HANDLE), &sbi)}}
> It fails with {{GetLastError() == ERROR_INVALID_HANDLE}} indicating that stdout has been redirected.
> I am blocked by the fact that it isn't possible to use ANSI colors under Windows when stdout has been redirected. I tried configuring Surefire with:
> {code}
> 	<forkCount>0</forkCount>
> 	<redirectTestOutputToFile>false</redirectTestOutputToFile>
> 	<useFile>false</useFile>
> 	<printSummary>false</printSummary>
> {code}
> but stdout is still getting redirected. Is it possible to configure Surefire to use the default stdout (connected to a terminal) without redirection?
> Expected behavior: Surefire shouldn't fork the JVM or redirect stdout when {{forkCount}} is zero and {{useFile}} is false.
