Thanks for the patch; it works for me as well.

> Using Log4j2 in a bundle causes following error:
> ERROR StatusLogger org.apache.logging.log4j.core.impl.Log4jContextFactory does not implement org.apache.logging.log4j.spi.LoggerContextFactory
> ERROR StatusLogger Unable to locate a logging implementation, using SimpleLogger
> printing the ClassLoaders in LogManager gives me following output:
> org.apache.logging.log4j.spi.LoggerContextFactory loaded by org.apache.logging.log4j-api [13]
> org.apache.logging.log4j.core.impl.Log4jContextFactory loaded by sun.misc.Launcher$AppClassLoader@35a16869
> We have two different ClassLoaders. That's why the implementation is not assignable. The core uses the bootstrap-classloader and the api uses the bundle-classloader.
> Workaround needed. Thx
> addendum:
> ProviderUtil.findClassLoader() returns the bootstrap-classloader but not the bundle-classloader of the log4j2-core. The log4j2-core is a fragment of the log4j2-api bundle. Thus, ProviderUtil.findClassLoader() must return the bundle-classloader of log4j2-api. This a bug for the case that log4j2-core is used as the implementation. There are other cases that will also cause problems. Further investigations are necessary.
> Workaround:
> 1. check if log4j2 runs in an OSGI container.
> Bundle mybundle = org.osgi.framework.FrameworkUtil.getBundle(MyClass.this);
> 2. if(mybundle != null), than get bundle-classloader of log4j2-impl.
> mybundle.adapt(BundleWiring.class).getClassLoader();
