- Configuring logback can be done in various ways. The simplest but
- least flexible way is by calling the
- <code>BasicConfigurator</code> class, like in the following code
- snippet.
+ The previous examples are rather simple. However, actual logging
+ in a larger application would not be any different. The general
+ pattern logging statements will not change. Only the configuration
+ process will be different since you will certainly need a more
+ specific configuration than what logback provides by default.
+ As you will see later on in this document,
+ configuring logback can be done in different flexible and
+ powerfull ways. Note that, normally, you won't need to invoke
+ <code>LoggerStatusPrinter</code>
+ after your log statements.

- Let's run the <code>HelloWorld3</code> application. In this
- example, the <code><a
- href="xref/ch/qos/logback/classic/BasicConfigurator.html">BasicConfigurator</a></code>
- class's <code>configureDefaultContext()</code> method is
- invoked. It will create a simple <code>ConsoleAppender</code>.
- The logging request will then be propagated to the
- <code>Appender</code> and the console will output the following:

- This example is rather simple. However, actual logging in a
