Target (flex-messaging-common 4.7.0 API)

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbstractTarget, ConsoleTarget, LineFormattedTarget
```
public interface Target
```
All logger target implementations within the logging framework must implement this interface. Target implementations receive log events and output information from these events to the appropriate output destination which may be a console, log file or some other custom destination.

Method Summary

Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`void`	`addFilter(String value)` Adds the category filteer that the `Target` will process log events for.
`void`	`addLogger(Logger logger)` Adds a `Logger` whose category matches the filters list for the `Target`.
`List`	`getFilters()` Returns the category filters defined for the `Target`.
`short`	`getLevel()` Returns the log level that the `Target` will process log events for.
`void`	`initialize(String id, ConfigMap properties)` Initializes the target with id and properties.
`void`	`logEvent(LogEvent event)` Logs a log event out to the `Target`s output destination, which may be the console or a log file.
`void`	`removeFilter(String value)` Removes a category filter from the list of filters the `Target` will process log events for.
`void`	`removeLogger(Logger logger)` Removes a `Logger` from the `Target`.
`void`	`setFilters(List value)` Sets the category filters that the `Target` will process log events for.
`void`	`setLevel(short value)` Sets the log level that the `Target` will process log events for.

- Method Detail
  - initialize
```
void initialize(String id,
              ConfigMap properties)
```
    Initializes the target with id and properties.
    
    Parameters:
    id - id for the target.
    properties - ConfigMap of properties for the target.
  - getFilters
```
List getFilters()
```
    Returns the category filters defined for the Target.
    
    Returns:
    The category filters defined for the Target.
  - setFilters
```
void setFilters(List value)
```
    Sets the category filters that the Target will process log events for.
    
    Parameters:
    value - The category filters that the Target will process
  - addFilter
```
void addFilter(String value)
```
    Adds the category filteer that the Target will process log events for.
    
    Parameters:
    value - The new category filter to add to the Target's list of filters.
  - removeFilter
```
void removeFilter(String value)
```
    Removes a category filter from the list of filters the Target will process log events for.
    
    Parameters:
    value - The category filter to remove from the Target's list of filters.
  - getLevel
```
short getLevel()
```
    Returns the log level that the Target will process log events for. Log events at this level, or at a higher priority level will be processed.
    
    Returns:
    The log level that the Target will process log events for.
  - setLevel
```
void setLevel(short value)
```
    Sets the log level that the Target will process log events for. Log events at this level, or at a higher priority level will be processed.
    
    Parameters:
    value - The log level that the Target will process log events for.
  - addLogger
```
void addLogger(Logger logger)
```
    Adds a Logger whose category matches the filters list for the Target. The Logger will dispatch log events to this Target to be output.
    
    Parameters:
    logger - The Logger to add.
  - removeLogger
```
void removeLogger(Logger logger)
```
    Removes a Logger from the Target.
    
    Parameters:
    logger - The Logger to remove.
  - logEvent
```
void logEvent(LogEvent event)
```
    Logs a log event out to the Targets output destination, which may be the console or a log file.
    
    Parameters:
    event - The LogEvent containing the information to output.
