[Development] qLog wildcards categories

[zsolt.simon at nokia.com]

Hi,

I personally like better the option A because it feels more natural and it is more logical in that way that last rule is always overwriting previous rules.

Regards,
Zsolt

Hi guys,

I need to have a vote on a implementation detail regarding filtering of wildcards categories.
Let's say you have a category defined and a wildcard category as well.
A: Do you think the order in the configuration file plays an important rule or 
B: If you set specific a category let's say com.Nokia.whatever the wildcard category will be ignored for this specific category

e.g. A:
----------------------------------------------
in QLog config file
a* = true
a.b = false

qCDebug(a.c) will be written
qCDebug(a.b) will be ignored
----------------------------------------------
in QLog config file
a.b = false
a* = true

qCDebug(a.c) will be written
qCDebug(a.b) will be written
----------------------------------------------

e.g. B:
----------------------------------------------
in QLog config file
a.b = true
a* = false

qCDebug(a.c) will be ignored
qCDebug(a.b) will be written
----------------------------------------------
in QLog config file
a.b = false
a* = true

qCDebug(a.c) will be written
qCDebug(a.b) will be ignored

Cheers,
 WB
