Q: Proper way to include log4j in an Eclipse 4 (RCP/SWT/OSGi) application This is a follow-up (somehow of my Third-party dependencies to an OSGi application) where it was suggested that some libraries e.g. log4j are already available as bundles.
In Eclipse Indigo I could not find a log4j bundle available to Import Package as part of my installation and so I created a Plugin Project from JAR archive to bundle log4j and also a Feature Project to bundle the log4j.xml configuration following this post.
To be honest I don't understand why the fragment project is needed but this process works.
So my question now is:
Since the log4j.xml is delivered in the export as part of the feature jar, it requires some "effort" for someone to find it and update the debug levels, so I was wondering is this indeed the correct process?
I had in mind that the final exported product would deliver the log4j configuration in an easy to find location, but now (although the logging works) I am concerned whether what I do, is indeed correct.
Any help here?

A: If you really need to expose the file, you could put it anywhere you want, and then make sure your program calls one of these methods at startup:

*

*org.apache.log4j.xml.DOMConfigurator.configure(String filename)

*org.apache.log4j.PropertyConfigurator.configure(String
configFilename)

Or use the "configureAndWatch"-variants if you would like to make changes to the config without restarting your application.
Edit: I write "If you really need to", because I have experienced that I never need to turn on debug-logging after deployment, because it is always turned on! This is OK for applications where I have normal (but not extreme) requirements on response-time and throughput. Logging to an UDP-appender is fast (and does not fill up the disk). Or using rolling file appender is quite safe, and fast enough for my use. Always having the debug-log available is a life-saver when nailing down those hard-to-reproduce bugs.

A: I suggest take a look at Pax-Logging  this will give you all kinds of logging frameworks for usage in a OSGi environment. And you're able to use an external configuration file (no extender needed) to configure your logging.

A: The fragment is one option to extend the log4j bundles classpath to include the required configuration file.  It is probably the simplest way of configuring application wide properties.
This is not meant to be altered after deployment though as it will be embedded within a jar file.  You will have to come up with a different approach if you expect to make it configurable after deployment.
NOTE:
I am afraid you misunderstood the answer about the jars that are already available as bundles.  This does not mean that they are part of your OSGi platform of choice (Indigo), only that they are ready to be deployed to an OSGi platform as is.  Your creation of a plugin project was unnecessary, you simply needed to add the jar to your target platform to resolve your missing imports.

CK and Nate header: Half-Bath: Finished!
It was super easy and fast. I officially will never be buying a roman shade again.
I didn't like the wood for the space so I used some spray paint left over from a project that Nate did to paint it a dark blue to match the curtains.
We're planning an adding a few more accessories, but all the big stuff is now done.
We are really loving how large the room is compared to the old half bath and we really like the fact that we have plenty of room in front of the sink and toilet.
Update: I found a before pic I didn't know I had!
We also really like how the tile came out and that the toilet has it's own little nook. We are also really glad we kept the selves behind the toilet. It's really great for storing toilet paper.
Now I had no idea when I did this what the plumbing and electrical would entail since I was doing the budget without Nate so it turns out I underestimated for plumbing at $182.39 but overestimated with the electrical at $44.27 so overall in those two categories I went a little more than $25 over budget. Luckily, in the fixture category we were way under. This is mostly due to the faucet that my cousin gave us. We came in at $68.83 which was mostly the lights. We were able to keep this renovation reasonable by reusing the toilet and the sink. For the walls we were a little over at $337.75 (due to the super annoying orange peel!) and we were under on the floor at $27.89. With the curtain and the rest of the accessories we came in at $56. Our grand total for the materials that went into the bathroom ended up being $717.13. We did have to buy some replacement tools for this project and we made the decision to buy a tile saw instead of rent one. This cost us another $177.68.
Even though we went a little over budget, it was definitely worth getting the tile saw for future projects and despite the fact that it feels like I've been posting about this project for FOREVER, it really only took us a week to finish it. This seemed uber fast to us and it, along with staying basically on budget, is the reason we were able to at least start other projects this break. Now it's time to go back to our real jobs so we're going to slow down a little, but we have projects to finish so we'll still be working!
Do you want to know all the steps to this project? Follow the links below to see the step by step process.
Your bathroom looks great! I like the wall behind the sink and the roman shade the best!
I really like the way the bathroom turned out. The light color and pedestal sink helps it look spacious. I love the tile behind the sink. I think it adds a touch of sophistication.


The school was as usual - set of classes. There was a difference though - the teacher had brought in the world-map with lot of photographs, and some articles like hat. Rahul found it very interesting - he enjoyed his Geography class - He found out that Mexico was far away from India to the west - One had to cross Arabian Sea, Europe and the Atlantic ocean to reach that county. It was also south of US. He also learnt about Cultures and traditions of Mexico were different from his own. He came home googled Mexico and found more information about the county - their capital city, population, dresses, flags etc.
