Where'd my frickin' log window go?

I lost my log window in JDev, and no matter how many times I hit 'View > Log', it never appears; found the answer to resurrecting it on Duncan Mills' site.

1. Shutdown JDev


2. Delete windowinglayout.xml. This file is in the o.ide folder under the jdeveloper system folder, system11.1.1.0.31.51.56.


3. Restart JDev

This file will get rebuilt with the layout defaults, which includes the log window, or any other window you may have misplaced, when JDeveloper restarts.
