The documentation of the *AbstractFilter* class says differently:
/**
* Context Filter method. The default returns NEUTRAL.
* @param event The LogEvent.
* @return The Result of filtering.
*/
@Override
public Result filter(final LogEvent event) {
return Result.NEUTRAL;
}
All the other methods are marked as "Appender filter" methods, and my needs
are to intercept all messages before they reach any appender.
So maybe that's the question I need to ask - how do I filter all messages
before they reach any appender?
Thanks,
Guy
