+

+
+ The default implementation formats the message into a string containing
+ the time stamp, level-dependent prefix and the message itself.
+
+ To change it, you can derive from it and override its Format() method. For
+ example, to include the thread id in the log messages you can use
+ @code
+ class LogFormatterWithThread : public wxLogFormatter
+ {
+ virtual wxString Format(wxLogLevel level,
+ const wxString& msg,
+ const wxLogRecordInfo& info) const

+ }
+ };
+ @endcode
+ And then associate it with wxLog instance using its SetFormatter(). Then,
+ if you call:
+
+ @code
+ wxLogMessage(_("*** Application started ***"));
+ @endcode
+

+
+ @verbatim
