For reasons unclear, Eclipse has recently started bringing up two consoles every time I debug a project. One console displays typical console information (stdout, stderr, etc.), and the other displays nothing. The titles are the same, except that the empty console is prefixed with “[Debug Console]”. The empty one also comes up on top, which is quite inconvenient.
I haven’t found anything useful in Eclipse’s preferences or on Google. Does anyone have an idea as to why this is happening and how I can stop it?
I had exactly the same problem, it did take me a while to figure out that not the logger was broken but Eclipse (Indigo / 3.7).
However, a simple Eclipse restart did helped me.
