--------------------------------------------------------------
With the annotation processor creating a Java source file the only thing that
would need to be shaded would be the META-INF/services/ file. Using the
ServiceLoader automatically makes it supportable for JPMS, I am still working
on OSGi. I would expect they would have handled as standard OSGi service
implementations.

> Project: Log4j 2
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Plugins
> Affects Versions: 3.0.0
> Reporter: Ralph Goers
> Assignee: Ralph Goers
> Priority: Major
>
> As part of splitting log4j 2 into smaller components it is clear that the
> plugin system, and especially the annotation processor, could be split into a
> separate module. Also, to be more compliant with the Java module system it
> might be beneficial to generate a Class file with all the plugin information
> instead of the data file currently being generated.
> Moving the plugins to a separate module is going to impact anyone who has
> created a Log4j 2 plugin as the package for the plugin annotations must
> change.
