Is there any character limit for the output of Java's System.out.println(String x) statement?

When I try to print some XML from a web service call using System.out.println(), only a portion of it is actually printed in the console.

The XML string that I am trying to print is huge.

Why is this happening?

Are you experiencing this within Eclipse? If yes:

EDIT:

  1. Go to Window > Preferences > Run/Debug > Console
  2. Uncheck "Limit Console Output" (Alternatively you can increase the Console buffer size.)
