-
-    @section log_derivingyours Deriving your own log target
-
-    There are two functions which must be implemented by any derived class to
-    actually process the log messages: DoLog() and DoLogString().
-    The second function receives a string which just has to be output in some way
-    and the easiest way to write a new log target is to override just this function
-    in the derived class.
-
-    If more control over the output format is needed, then the first function must
-    be overridden which allows to construct custom messages depending on the log level
-    or even do completely different things depending on the message severity
-    (for example, throw away all messages except warnings and errors, show warnings
-    on the screen and forward the error messages to the user's (or programmer's) cell
-    phone - maybe depending on whether the timestamp tells us if it is day or
-    night in the current time zone).
-
-    There also functions to support message buffering. Why are they needed?
-    Some of wxLog implementations, most notably the standard wxLogGui class,
-    buffer the messages (for example, to avoid showing the user a zillion of modal
-    message boxes one after another -- which would be really annoying).
-
-    Flush() shows them all and clears the buffer contents.
-    This function doesn't do anything if the buffer is already empty.
-
-    See also:
-    @li Flush()
-    @li FlushActive()
-
-
-    @section log_tracemasks Using trace masks
-
-    The functions below allow some limited customization of wxLog behaviour
-    without writing a new log target class (which, aside from being a matter of
-    several minutes, allows you to do anything you want).
-    The verbose messages are the trace messages which are not disabled in the
-    release mode and are generated by wxLogVerbose().
-    They are not normally shown to the user because they present little interest,
-    but may be activated, for example, in order to help the user find some program
-    problem.
-
-    As for the (real) trace messages, their handling depends on the currently
-    enabled trace masks: if AddTraceMask() was called for the mask of the given
-    message, it will be logged, otherwise nothing happens.
-
-    For example,
-    @code
-    wxLogTrace( wxTRACE_OleCalls, "IFoo::Bar() called" );
-    @endcode
-
-    will log the message if it was preceded by:
-
-    @code
-    wxLog::AddTraceMask( wxTRACE_OleCalls);
-    @endcode
-
-    The standard trace masks are given in wxLogTrace() documentation.
-
-    Finally, the @e wxLog::DoLog() function automatically prepends a time stamp
-    to all the messages. The format of the time stamp may be changed: it can be
-    any string with % specifications fully described in the documentation of the
-    standard @e strftime() function. For example, the default format is
-    "[%d/%b/%y %H:%M:%S] " which gives something like "[17/Sep/98 22:10:16] "
-    (without quotes) for the current date. Setting an empty string as the time
-    format or calling the shortcut wxLog::DisableTimestamp(), disables timestamping
-    of the messages completely.

-    @li GetRepetitionCounting()
-
-    @note
-    Timestamping is disabled for Visual C++ users in debug builds by
-    default because otherwise it would be impossible to directly go to the line
-    from which the log message was generated by simply clicking in the debugger
-    window on the corresponding error message. If you wish to enable it, please
-    use SetTimestamp() explicitly.
-
-
-    @section log_target Manipulating the log target
-
-    The functions in this section work with and manipulate the active log
-    target. The OnLog() is called by the @e wxLogXXX() functions
-    and invokes the DoLog() of the active log target if any.
-
-    Get/Set methods are used to install/query the current active target and,
-    finally, DontCreateOnDemand() disables the automatic creation of a standard
-    log target if none actually exists. It is only useful when the application
-    is terminating and shouldn't be used in other situations because it may
-    easily lead to a loss of messages.
