[Boost-users] Log: Overwrite format of sink

Subject: [Boost-users] Log: Overwrite format of sink

Hello,

I have a console sink:

    boost::log::add_console_log(std::cout, keywords::format = fmtStream); 

with fmtStream being an expressions stream.

After setting up the sinks I load a configuration file:

    std::ifstream file("log.settings");
    init_from_stream(file);

Is there a way to overwrite the format of this sink from within in the 
configuration file. Or, alternatively disable this sink.

What I want to achieve is that a user have the option to modify the format 
without having two console outputs...

Thanks,
Florian
