Logger and Widget Layout [message #897057]

I've got a question and a problem.

The question is: I can inject Logger (org.eclipse.e4.core.services.log.Logger) and insert some message in it. But how can I read these message in other parts of my application?

The problem is about widget layout. I've got a Part with two components: a Label (org.eclipse.swt.widgets.Label) and a TreeViewer (org.eclipse.jface.viewers.TreeViewer): they have both 50% of part's space: the label result disproportionate.
How can I fix part layout?
I've tryed to use GridLayout but the viewer crosses part's bottom.

Can anyone help me?
Very thank you much for kind,
best regards.

For the question: the logger is meant to log events somewhere, not for inter-part communications. If you want other parts to read message from other parts, check out the IEventBroker.

And IIRC, Logger is an interface, and so could be replaced by an alternative logging mechanism. I believe the default logger just ties to the Eclipse platform logging facility, which is itself an implementation of the OSGi LogService.
