+/**
+ @class wxLogFormatter
+
+ wxLogFormatter class is used to format the log messages. It implements the
+ default formatting and can be derived from to create custom formatters.
+
+ 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
+ {
+ return wxString::Format("[%d] %s(%d) : %s",
+ info.threadId, info.filename, info.line, msg);
+ }
+ };
+ @endcode
+ And then associate it with wxLog instance using its SetFormatter(). Then,
+ if you call:
+
+ @code
+ wxLogMessage(_("*** Application started ***"));
+ @endcode
+
+ the log output could be something like:
+
+ @verbatim
+ [7872] d:\testApp\src\testApp.cpp(85) : *** Application started ***
+ @endverbatim
+
+ @library{wxbase}
+ @category{logging}
+
+ @see @ref overview_log
