Filter Language and Compiler
To make a filter for a forwarding, printing, or consumer distributor, you can create an
edit file containing the filter-language constructs that express your selection criteria. You
then use the filter-language compiler (EMF) to generate an object file suitable for
loading to the distributor. Once the filter specification is loaded, the distributor uses it to
decide whether to pass each event message to its destination.
Where to Find More Information About EMS
EMS is described in the following manuals:

Note. The EMS Analyzer product, described later in this section, makes event filtering easier
by providing a default filter that allows you to specify a set of search parameters. You can also
use your own custom filter to analyze event information with EMS Analyzer.
