Quickfix/n, how to disable store and log factories?

Question

How can I disable all of Quickfix/n's log and file factories? I want to handle all logging and message sending myself because I do not like the way how Quickfix sources log messages, meaning I want to decide when and how logging messages originate. Is there a way to completely disable any screen based or file based logging?

Thanks

There should be a NullLogFactory, but I don't currently see one, and I'm kind of confused why not. I thought there was one. (If you didn't know, I maintain QF/n.)

But you can create one like so:

public class NullLogFactory : ILogFactory
{
    SessionSettings settings_;

    #region LogFactory Members

    public NullLogFactory(SessionSettings settings)
    {}

    public ILog Create(SessionID sessionID)
    {
        return new QuickFix.NullLog();
    }

    #endregion
}

The next QF/n release will contain a null factory or something to fill that gap.
