Ceki, It appears that logback-beagle is not outputting log items at the TRACE level, and the log accumulates (even after clearing) between successive runs of an application. So if I clear the log, run the app with ERROR, I see an event count of one. But if I right click and change the ERROR level to WARN, I now see all events (warn and below) from the time I started eclipse and ran the app the first time. This may be the desired design, but it is not one that I was expecting. To actually clear the log, I have to restart Eclipse. This is running on Eclipse-Juno with Java 1.7. My logback.xml file is just the beagle entry: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration debug="true"> <!-- sends logs to logback-beagle --> <consolePlugin /> </configuration> The code is very simple: public class BeagleTest { private static final Logger LOGGER = LoggerFactory.getLogger(BeagleTest.class); public static void main(String[] args) { LOGGER.trace("Message 1"); LOGGER.debug("Message 2"); LOGGER.info("Message 3"); LOGGER.warn("Message 4"); LOGGER.error("Message 5"); } } Larry Smith -----Original Message----- From: logback-user-bounces@qos.ch [mailto:logback-user-bounces@qos.ch] On Behalf Of ceki Sent: Friday, August 24, 2012 3:12 PM To: logback users list Subject: [logback-user] Release of logback-beagle 1.1.0 Hello all, I am happy to announce the release of logback-beagle 1.1.0, an eclipse plug-in for viewing logs.
