Hi Clemens,

Is your application logging Common Base Events? I'm not an expert on 
logging but I know there are basically two ways to do it - (1) you can 
just write the log to a file and then import it and view it in the log 
view via the import log file wizard, or (2) register a logging agent that 
you can attach to and get log records in real-time as they're being logged.

If you're using a logging agent, you have to explicitly attach to the 
agent to listen in on it. Before you do this, you have to turn on the 
option to use logging agents in the UI. This is done in the Profiling and 
Logging top-level preference page. Then, once your application is running 
and the logging agent is up and running, you attach to it by opening the 
profiling launch configuration dialog via the "Profile..." toolbar button, 
and creating a new Attach - Java Process launch configuration. Then in the 
agents tab, you should see your agent appear. Select it, and you should 
see the log in the log navigator view in the Profiling and Logging 
perspective with a special icon showing that it is a live log.

Thanks,
Curt
