<logfilter> element

The way entries are filtered by the log filter is configured within the logfilter section. This element lists the filters that process the log entry before it is routed to the trace listeners.

The log filter checks each log entry before it is passed to the trace listeners. Filtering a log entry prevents the logging library from writing it to any of its destinations. Log entries are filtered by their log type, category and level.

The filter configuration uses the combination of the log type, category and filter to determine whether a log entry will pass. Each log type has a default minimum level and a default maximum level. These defaults can be overridden for specific log categories.
