As I side note, I tried to use that tool this morning to see the code that 
generates, and it fails to me using the examples.

Error: Main method not found in class 
org.apache.logging.log4j.core.tools.Generate, please define the main method as:
   public static void main(String[] args)
or a JavaFX application class must extend javafx.application.Application
