Example: Base Generic Emitter Interface

The Base Generic Emitter interface defines how audit events are emitted. Other interfaces can exist to extend this interface and to process specific audit events groupings, such as security events, transactional events, or some other custom grouping. Use this interface to create a custom implementation of the emitter.
