[issue42011] Documentation for logging.Filter.filter reports the wrong return type

[Vinay Sajip]

Vinay Sajip <vinay_sajip at yahoo.co.uk> added the comment:

I agree that the documentation now should use Booleans rather than ints for the return type. It's a hangover from the pre-bool days of Python 1.5.2 ...

> P.S. As a side note, the API for filter() is quite counter-intuitive

That depends on if you consider the "filter" operation as "filter in" or "filter out", but the documentation is clear on what needs to be returned for a particular outcome.
