Output logchannels (short: logchannels) are output streams for logmessages. The logging output of a program can go to one or more logchannels. They are defined in the configuration file, that is given as a parameter of ITLogLibInitialize.
Output logchannels are represented by HLOGCHANNEL handles, provided or wanted by several functions.
All functions concerning a special logchannel are prefixed with ITLogChannel and receive a HLOGCHANNEL handle at its first parameter.
The standard logchannel, named "StdLog", is opened automatically as part of the initialization of the logging library. It is used as default, whenever the logchannel name or handle is omitted in a logging operation.
