---------------------------------------
Thanks for the reply. I have the annotations. It matches the appender example
at https://logging.apache.org/log4j/2.x/manual/extending.html.
If I extract/unzip the jar file, so using just classes, the appender is found.
I haven't had any luck getting the Eclipse Annotation Processor to work.
Does the packages attribute support loading plugins that don't have a .dat file
(no annotation processing).
Someone had similar issues with the Eclipse Annotation Processor here:

> I am experiencing this issue with 2.6.3 and I tried 2.3. I have a custom
> plugin in a jar file. Works fine from eclipse, or a non-jar java app but not
> as a jar project. I have packages="... attribute filled out in my log4j2.xml.
> I added it to get the custom appender found while running from eclipse. As a
> non-maven program using jars which are on the classpath the appender is not
> found. Is there another way I should be doing this? Is packages still fixed /
> or still an available feature?
> Note: If I extract my jars and run, the appender is found.
> See: LOG4J2-741
> This referenced issue and the stack overflow link in the description of this
> issue sound like my issue. Do I need to compile with a certain flag turned
> on? Generate my jar a certain way?
