How link log from Logback in Swing application?


I have to add a panel to an application, this panel will log the errors of the application. I have create a class wich extends AppenderBase and i have configure the xml file to use this class.

So when i log somehting in the application, the appender he's called.

But at the moment i don't know how to link my appender to my panel.

Can you guide me please ?


Solution

  • For this you have to write your custom Appender, for this see :logback.qos.ch/manual/appenders.html. Then you need to using a component such as JTextArea for showing log in it. Then you have to write a Programmatic Configuration logback for relation between your custom Appender and your Swing-Component. see :logback.qos.ch/manual/joran.html
