D) False, because you don't want to linemerge when using LINE_BREAKER. Duh!

Auto? Really? That's just asking for trouble with multi-line events.

True, it's the correct answer to ensure the multi-line events are properly merged.
RA

I’m leaning towards False for SHOULD_LINEMERGE, but I definitely need to double-check my notes on this.

If I recall correctly, setting SHOULD_LINEMERGE to Auto might be the right choice, but I could be mixing it up with another topic.

I remember practicing a question like this, and I think the answer was None, but it feels a bit fuzzy now.

I think the SHOULD_LINEMERGE attribute should be set to True, but I'm not completely sure.

D) False seems like the right answer to me. If you're using LINE_BREAKER, you wouldn't want SHOULD_LINEMERGE to be True, since that would defeat the purpose of the line breaking.
ST

I'm pretty confident the answer is C) True. If you're using LINE_BREAKER, you'll want SHOULD_LINEMERGE to be True so the lines get merged back together.

Okay, I know the props.conf file is used to configure event processing. The LINE_BREAKER attribute is for multi-line events, so SHOULD_LINEMERGE must be related to that.
BL
Blair 10 months ago
I think it should be A) Auto. Makes sense for multi-line.
CR
Craig 10 months ago
Wait, I thought it was supposed to be Auto?
GR
Gretchen 10 months ago
I always forget which one it is, but False seems like the logical choice.
RO

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to review my notes to refresh my memory.
