[logback-user] Project Can't Find logback.xml file

[Roger Spears]

I'm curious, when you run the attached project, what do you get for the 
console output?  Since it has FOOBAR in the pattern, I would have 
expected to see FOOBAR on the console.  Instead, I still see the default 
display:

19:34:45.088 [main] INFO  helloworld.HelloWorld - hello world!

Is that what you get when you the project that you attached?

Thanks,
Roger

> <appender name="STDOUT" class="ch.qos.logback.core.ConsoleAppender">

> <root level="DEBUG">
> <appender-ref ref="STDOUT" />
