Remarks

Note that setting the type of formatter to use with this method does change the way command are logged when Log is used. It is still necessary to set a TextWriter instance onto Log before any commands will be logged. For more low-level control over logging/interception see IDbCommandInterceptor and DbInterception. This method is provided as a convenient and discoverable way to add configuration to the Entity Framework. Internally it works in the same way as using AddDependencyResolver to add an appropriate resolver for Func<TResult>. This means that, if desired, the same functionality can be achieved using a custom resolver or a resolver backed by an Inversion-of-Control container.
