Hello,

Good catches!  That was a little bit embarrassing to say the least.

Unfortunately, I still get the standard response on my console:

11:09:20.731 [main] INFO  logtest.LogTest - hello world


Also, I'm including two screen shots with this email.  The first is a shot of the corrected xml code.  The second is a list of what's in my library for this project.  Maybe there's something there/not there that I can correct?.?.

Also, your logback.xml is missing a closing bracket for </configuration*>*.

You might not have noticed that your file is named "logback.xml*.xml*"
(with the extra .xml extension). Try renaming that file to "logback.xml",
and then run it again.

Thank you for the suggestion....Unfortunately, I get the same result....

09:49:47.151 [main] INFO  logtest.LogTest - hello world


I followed your directions with the exception of naming the class HelloWorld.  I named it LogTest.

When I right clicked on Source Package and added new xml file, Netbeans created the <default package> folder on its own.


I'm attaching two screen shots of my netbeans setup.

The first screen shot is LogTest.java and the second is logback.xml.

Thanks,
Roger

Something else that's weird.  I imported Tony's project to my Netbeans and
it stated it had reference issues.  It could not find
logback-core-1.0.0.jar, logback-classic-1.0.0.jar and sl4j-api-1.6.4.jar.
I know I can resolve this, I'll just point them towards my versions of
those jar's.  BUT, for giggles, I ran the project with the unresolved
reference issues and it displayed the same thing on the console:

19:57:35.609 [main] INFO  helloworld.HelloWorld - hello world!


I just imported that project into another machine, updated the JAR
references (as they're not in the same location on the other machine), and
ran it. I see this:

run:
2012-01-20 21:10:50,277
 FOOBAR [main] INFO helloworld.HelloWorld -
 hello world!BUILD SUCCESSFUL (total time: 0 seconds)



I'm not sure if that's a clue to anything or if that's the expected
behavior since I have those files in my classpath.


Try my exact steps to create that project:

1. Create a new Java project in Netbeans (or Eclipse...same steps here
work).

2. Create a class named "HelloWorld", and copy this code into it:

package helloworld;

import org.slf4j.Logger;
import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;

public class HelloWorld {
private static final Logger LOG = LoggerFactory.getLogger(HelloWorld.class);
 public static void main(String[] args) {
 LOG.info("hello world!");
}
}

3. Create a file named logback.xml in the src directory (do not put it
under src/helloworld or any other subdirectory). Copy the following into
the file:

<configuration>
  <appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
    <encoder>
      <pattern>%date %n FOOBAR [%thread] %level %logger{35} - %n
%msg</pattern>
    </encoder>
  </appender>
  <root level="DEBUG">
    <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
  </root>
</configuration>

*You can actually put logback.xml into any directory specified by the
run.classpath property in ${project.dir}/nbproject/project.properties. We
used src here only because it's quick and easy.*

4. Build and run the project.
