 You could try running adb logcat from your computer's command line. That

Ok, I can see my application's log output with adb logcat.  I still
don't see anything in the LogCat view in Eclipse.

  I've deployed an app to my device that calls Log.v(String, String).
  I'm using the ADT. I have the LogCat view showing.

  I step over the line of code that calls Log.v(). Nothing appears in
  the LogCat view.

  I haven't added any filters. I've tried clicking the V toggle
  button in the LogCat view, but that makes no difference.

  It appears that I'm supposed to set the log level of the device. There
  appears to be no way to do that from the ADT. However, looking at the
  various short articles discussing this, I believe that doing this from
  the shell is supposed to do it:

  ./adb -d shell setprop log.tag.SNAPSHOT VERBOSE

  Where my tag is SNAPSHOT. I ran this, and it returned to the prompt
  without showing the usage info, so I assume it at least recognized my
  input.

  The line of code that is executed is this:

  Log.v(SNAPSHOT, Checking currentEffect[ + currentEffect + ]);

  This line doesn't show up in the LogCat view.

  What am I missing?

Oh, and I just noticed I wasn't using the latest version of the SDK or
plugin.  I just reinstalled everything and now LogCat is working fine.
