Type of issue

Missing information

Description

The table listing the "initializeData attribute value" for "Trace listener class"'s does not have a entry for "DefaultTraceListener". Running into a lot of Bing/CoPilot returns suggesting it is the log name, but doesn't work, and I can not find any definitive information; this table is the closest I have come across.

Maybe adding trace listeners from this class is "low value" given the other classes available? Is it bad form to use this class? Given the fact that there is instructions to use this class via code (vs. app.config) implies there is value in doing so; and hence knowing what are acceptable values for initializeData when going the app.config approach.
