What is the purpose of app.config.txt

cocos2d-x C++
#1

What is the purpose of app.config.txt, it seems to be in all the sample projects but I can’t find any information about it. Here is the contents:

[Trace]
GAME                <0 or 1>    Game Channel

[Assert]
GAME                <0 or 1>    Game Assert Channel

I kinda want to remove it for my own game but I’d like to know what it is for before I do.

It is a file generated for the Airplay/Marmalade platform. You should be able to remove it from your own game with no problems.
