class Foundation_API Formatter: public Configurable, public RefCountedObject
	/// The base class for all Formatter classes.
	///
	/// A formatter basically takes a Message object
	/// and formats it into a string. How the formatting
	/// is exactly done is up to the implementation of
	/// Formatter. For example, a very simple implementation
	/// might simply take the message's Text (see Message::getText()).
	/// A useful implementation should at least take the Message's
	/// Time, Priority and Text fields and put them into a string.
	///
	/// The Formatter class supports the Configurable interface,
	/// so the behaviour of certain formatters is configurable.
	/// It also supports reference counting based garbage collection.
	///
	/// Trivial implementations of of getProperty() and
	/// setProperty() are provided.
	///
	/// Subclasses must at least provide a format() method.
