Hi,

It seems like there is no built in support for logging from within an Eclipse RCP plug-in. So I wrote my own appender and pointed to it from my logback.xml

14:14:04,992 |-ERROR in ch.qos.logback.core.joran.action.AppenderAction - Could not create an Appender of type [foo.RCPAppender]. ch.qos.logback.core.util.DynamicClassLoadingException: Failed to instantiate type se.ericsson.baseband.logging.RCPAppender

                             at ch.qos.logback.core.util.DynamicClassLoadingException: Failed to instantiate type foo.RCPAppender

I’ve seen other people who have trouble with this when using ecilpse plug-ins and bundles due to different class loaders. I have however not found any proper solution to this.

How would I make logback find my appender?

Hi,

I’m developing Eclipse RCP plug-ins. Is it possible to make logback log to the existnig workspace log, so that the logs show up in the ”Error Log” view in the GUI?
