Talking to Solr through a log4j appender?

[Moazam Raja]

Hi all, has anyone tried communicating to Solr via a log4j appender? If so,
what kind of layout are you using to format the requests properly?

The whole purpose of using a log4j appender to talk to Solr would be so that
adding Solr/Lucene to an existing application would be minimally invasive.

Thanks.

do you mean, writing an appender that when you call:
log.info( "blah bla ba..." );
that gets posted to a solr index?

I have not heard of anything, but should be relatively easy using  
solrj...
