Frank Conover commented on LOG4J2-1614:
---------------------------------------

I have a custom plugin packaged within a jar that does not have a .dat file. To 
launch my program I am just running the java command on the command line with 
the jar in the classpath.

> Package attribute for discovering custom plugins within jars fails

> 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?
