Dan,

Thanks for the info. Given the focus of Studio on debugging, rather than deployment,
I am now running my OXF app as a web project using the myEclipse plugin for
deployment to Tomcat, and the oXygenXML plugin for xml editing. I'll try setting up
the debug monitoring of Studio soon.


Question:
I like the syntax coloring set up that I've established in OxygenXML, but what would I
loose by associating it to the page-flow and xpl files of OXF, instead of using the editors
that come with studio?


Just to make sure I've got it (or not), here's my feedback of how debug logging of OXF on remote servers works.

   * When the Log Event View (LEV) is opened in Studio ( stand alone or
     plugin ) it initially scans the log4j.xml files in your workspace.
     If LEV sees a SocketAppender, SocketReceiver, or SocketHubAppender
     declaration in log4j,xml (denoting an intent to log to a remote
     logging facility - studio in this case), it creates a
     corresponding server socket or socket connection, allowing the
     remote presentation server to connect to the Studio host for
     logging purposes.

   * The Presentation Server, on the remote app server, loads its copy
     of log4j, and configures it with the log4j.xml named in
     properties.xml. e.g. 'oxf:/config/log4j.xml'

   * Each time Presentation manger on the remote appserver encounters a
     debug attrib in a .xpl file, it generates a log message, which
     log4j forwards to the logging socket on the studio host

   * LEV on the Studio host monitors the log files and refreshes the
     display, whenever logging lines are received from the remote
     appserver.

   * So, as long as the logging config files for Studio and
     Presentation Server are complementary everything should just work.
     ( Barring firewalls etc. )

Question:
What exactly does 'complementary logging configurations' mean ?

Thanks,

Bill.
