When evaluate()
is evaluating code, the text output is diverted into
an internal connection, and there is no way to flush that connection. This
function provides a way to "flush" the connection so that any text output can
be immediately written out, and more importantly, the text
handler
(specified in the output_handler
argument of evaluate()
) will
be called, which makes it possible for users to know it when the code
produces text output using the handler.
