/**
 * The method gets a {@link Telemetry} instance that is ready to be sent. This is your chance to approve
 * or deny it. Returning 'false' means that the Telemetry will not be sent while 'true' means you approve it.
 *
 * The Telemetry might go through other filters though, that might deny its sending.
 *
 * To enable this processor you need to add it in the ApplicationInsights.xml like this:
 *
 *  * {@code
 *  
 *      
 *          
 *              
 *          
 *      
 *  
 *  }
 *
 *
 * Note that the class defines a property named 'Property' which is configured too.
 * Every property that you wish to configure needs to have a 'setX' public method like 'setProperty' in this example
 * Exceptions thrown from the 'setX' methods will be caught by the framework that will ignore the filter
