includes a time stamp.
logformat
This attribute defines the format of the log file. The following two values are supported:
ALIGN
Aligns the trace entry fields in the log file into comma separated columns. The top of each
column includes a header that provides a description of the column’s content. This is the
default setting.
UNALIGN

Notes: 1. If you set the logformat attribute to ALIGN, you can customize the widths of the various
columns. The following attributes in the RTF configuration file allow you to define the aligned
column widths:
– ModuleWidth number - Allows you to customize the number of characters that appear
in the Module column. The default setting is 10. There is no maximum setting.
– ClientWidth number - Allows you to customize the number of characters that appear in
the Client column. The default setting is 15. There is no maximum setting.
