> **** This issue is not type question rather than a bug ****
> I have created a launcher programme which is responsible for laoding the config values and instantiating the felix container (1.4.1). 
> Everything is working fine except for one small glitch.  Please take a look for following error message thrown by the log4j bundle. 
> The launcher programme is using log4j for logging. But when it starts the felix container, log4j bundle is installed since it is used by the application itself. 
> I have listed deployed bundles further below. 
> My view is, the log4j library loaded by launcher is visible to felix container and hence log4j bundle fails to start cleanly. This is going to be a big problem for dpeloyment. 
> I am using felix 1.4.1, is that too old to be good? 
> Is there any setting that I need to pass to instruct the felix to create comepletly new classloader as system-classloader? Being a OSGI container I expected it to create new class-loader as system-classloader but now I feel it does not.  
> Can someome please help me understand?
