Class AbstractFilter

java.lang.Object
  org.apache.logging.log4j.core.AbstractLifeCycle
      org.apache.logging.log4j.core.filter.AbstractFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Filter, LifeCycle

Direct Known Subclasses:

BurstFilter, DynamicThresholdFilter, MapFilter, MarkerFilter, RegexFilter, ThresholdFilter, TimeFilter

public abstract class AbstractFilter
extends AbstractLifeCycle
implements Filter

Users should extend this class to implement filters. Filters can be either context wide or attached to an appender. A filter may choose to support being called only from the context or only from an appender in which case it will only implement the required method(s). The rest will default to return NEUTRAL.
