Can I Disable the Creation of the "log" Directory?

<objectdb>
<general>
  <temp path="$temp/ObjectDb" threshold="64mb" />
  <network inactivity-timeout="0" />
  <url-history size="0" user="false" password="false" />
  <log path="" max="8mb" stdout="false" stderr="false" />
  <log-archive path="$objectdb/log/archive/" retain="90" />
  <logger name="*" level="info" />
</general>
</objectdb>

Current Directory:  C:\Users\BoydEdmondson\Documents\Programming\UniLogical\ObjectDbTest
objectdb.config FOUND
log does NOT exist before test
ObjectDB created log directory
