Interface TriggeringEventEvaluator

public interface TriggeringEventEvaluator

Implementions of this interface allow certain appenders to decide when to perform an appender specific action.

For example the {@link org.apache.log4j.net.SMTPAppender} sends an email when the {@link #isTriggeringEvent} method returns true and adds the event to an internal buffer when the returned result is false.
