Thank you for your suggestion of add the ClassLoader. I don't know why I
didn't think of that. Maybe it's because I'm fairly new to Java.<br>
<br>
I added the following two lines to my HelloWorld.java class:<br>
<br>
String URL = "logback.xml";<br>
System.out.println(ClassLoader.getSystemResource(URL));<br>
<br>
The output I receive on the console looks like this:<br>
<br>
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="file:///Users/roger/NetBeansProjects/HelloWorld/build/classes/logback.xml">file:/Users/roger/NetBeansProjects/HelloWorld/build/classes/logback.xml</a><br>
12:30:01.762 [main] DEBUG helloworld - Hello world.<br>
<br>
When I open the logback.xml file that is listed in the console output,
it looks exactly like the custom logback.xml file I created.<br>
<br>
The problem still exists that it's not picking up on the custom pattern I
have in logback.xml. That pattern looks like this:<br>
<br>
<pattern>%date %n [%thread] %level %logger{35} - %n
%msg</pattern><br>
<br>
<br>
I would have expected to see the date followed by a jump down to a new
line followed by [main] followed by a jump down to a new line and etc.
etc etc.<br>
<br>
Am I wrong to think logback uses %n as new line characters?<br>
<br>
My experience has been with log4j and %n generates the newline in its
pattern.<br>
<br>
Thanks again,<br>
Rogert<br>

<div style="color:#888888;margin-left:24px;margin-right:24px;" __pbrmquotes="true" class="__pbConvBody">Hello,
<br>
<br>I'm running Netbeans 7.0.1 on a Mac Book Pro with OS Lion. I'm
currently using log4j without any problems. I wanted to try out
logback.
<br>
<br>Yesterday I downloaded logback and placed the 4 jar files in the
proper
location. I'm able to run the basic logback HelloWorld example. Here's
the code for the HelloWorld example I'm working with:
<br>
<br>package helloworld;
<br>
<br>import org.slf4j.Logger;
<br>import org.slf4j.LoggerFactory;
<br>
<br>public class HelloWorld {
<br>
<br> public static void main(String[] args) {
<br>
<br> Logger logger = LoggerFactory.getLogger("helloworld");
<br> logger.debug("Hello world.");
<br>
<br> }
<br>
<br>}
<br>
<br>Here's my customized logback.xml file:
<br>
<br><configuration>
<br><appender name="STDOUT"
class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">
<br><encoder>
<br><pattern>%date %n [%thread] %level %logger{35} - %n
%msg</pattern>
<br></encoder>
<br></appender>
<br><root level="DEBUG">
<br><appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
<br></root>
<br></configuration>
<br>
<br>The problem is...Netbeans (or java) never picks up on my customized
logback.xml file. I'm starting out easy by just changing the pattern to
see if I can get it to work. When I run the project, I see the
following on the console:
<br>
<br>11:56:33.569 [main] DEBUG helloworld - Hello world.
<br>
<br>That's not the pattern I specified in logback.xml.
<br>
<br>I'm assuming I just don't have it in the proper location. I have a
copy
of logback.xml in the following locations just to see if I had it in the
wrong place:
<br>
<br>NetBeansProjects -> HelloWorld -> src -> logback.xml
<br>
<br>NetBeansProjects -> HelloWorld -> logback.xml
<br>
<br>NetBeansProjects -> HelloWorld -> nbproject -> private
-> logback.xml
<br>
<br>NetBeansProjects -> HelloWorld -> build -> classes ->
logback.xml
<br>
<br>System -> Libraries -> Java -> Extensions -> logback.xml
<br>
<br>
<br>I am still unable to get the pattern I'm looking for.
<br>
<br>Does anyone know why this would be happening?
<br>
<br>Thanks,
<br>Roger
