We've written one in ServiceMix and have found no problem with it.
The appender is exported in the OSGi registry using spring and the
following beans:
<bean id="vmLogAppender"
class="org.apache.servicemix.gshell.log.VmLogAppender">
<property name="events" ref="events" />
</bean>
<bean id="events" class="org.apache.servicemix.gshell.log.LruList">
<constructor-arg value="${size}" />
</bean>
<osgi:service ref="vmLogAppender"
interface="org.ops4j.pax.logging.spi.PaxAppender">
<osgi:service-properties>
<entry>
<key><util:constant
static-field="org.ops4j.pax.logging.PaxLoggingService.APPENDER_NAME_PROPERTY"/></key>
<value>VmLogAppender</value>
</entry>
</osgi:service-properties>
</osgi:service>
Then, the pax logging configuration looks like:
log4j.rootLogger=INFO, out, osgi:VmLogAppender
So in short, the appender must be registered in the OSGi registry
using the org.ops4j.pax.logging.spi.PaxAppender interface and have a
service property named org.ops4j.pax.logging.appender.name. The value
of this property can be referenced using osgi:[value].
