Logging in Indigo [message #704169]

Hello eclipse community!

I'm fairly new to eclipse/rcp/plugin developement.

With eclipse helios I wrote a logging plugin. For that I used the osgi LogService. With an LogListener I get the messages an write them into the eclipse log file.

Plugin.getLog().log(status);

Now I tested with indigo and there is some strange behaviour when calling ILog.log(status). It looks like restarting the bundle again and again and again...

In the changes comming with indigo I read that logging was unified and you should use the ExtendedLogService (but it's nearly the same like LogService?!).

Now my questions is how to log into the eclipse log file?

Thanks in adavance!

Your code should still do the trick. If not, please file a bug with a
sample that demonstrates your issue.

ok.
I tested with a small example and now I get the following exception:

LogFilter.isLoggable threw a non-fatal unchecked exception as follows:
java.lang.NullPointerException

The status I logged was written into the log file, but whats about this exception?
I didn't find any working solution for this.
