The general idea is that the logging category objects represent a view on the
general logging configuration, and shouldn't be manipulated directly. That is,
if you call setEnabled() on one object it will be only changing the exact
object, and not another object that might represent the same category. Also, a
change in the logging configuration might overwrite your local change at any
time.
To avoid this, I suggest to change the logging rules either through custom
logging rules (QLoggingCategory::setFilterRules(), QT_LOGGING_RULES,
QT_LOGGING_CONF), or by installing a custom logging filter
(QLoggingCategory::installFilter()). If you 'just' want to set a default
logging level (so that e.g. QtDebugMsg messages are not printed for your
categories) you can also set a level in your Q_LOGGING_CATEGORY macro call.
This is also all documented in
http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qloggingcategory.html#details . Please raise it if you
feel that anything is unclear/missing there.
