The Council of Trent seemed to affirm the practice of the Latin church requiring celibacy of its major orders (understood then as presbyter, deacon, and subdeacon). Minor clerics were allowed to be married, but consider second-class compared to celibate clerics.
The 24th Session, in canon 10, anathematized anyone who claimed that marriage was a higher state than virginity or celibacy or who denied that it was better and more blessed to remain in virginity or celibacy than to be married. This applies to all Christians, though, and not just clergy.
What this did was affirm that celibacy was a valid option for priests. Combined with the professionalization of the presbyterate and the formal education now required, the practical effect was that the requirement of celibacy (since Lateran Council I in 1123) was for the first time being universally received and put into practice, because of Trent.
