According to the ?Constraint? description field, these logging operations shall be called by the SA after the send operation is performed.<br />
<br />
But looking at the input parameters defined in the prototype description of these functions, we?ve found that some of them may be hard to be passed in by the System Adaptor. That?s the case of the source file of the test specification (and the number of line) under execution and, mainly, the msgValue parameter (defined as the value to be encoded and sent).<br />
<br />
Obviously, this information is well known in the TE environment, but it is not available within the SA scope.<br />
<br />
The standard should clarify the fact that the tliMSend_m, tliMSend_m_BC and tliMSend_MC log events are really called by the TE as within the SA.<br />
<br />
A complete review of clause ?7.3.4.1 TCI-TL provided? is recommended in order to clarify this, because this ?misunderstanding? is also present in all the event log operations that &quot;Shall be called by [...]&quot; other entities, like the CH, CD, PA and SA (as mentioned above).<br />

				The intention of the logging is to log the events at the point in time when they so to say &quot;leave the TTCN-3 based test system&quot;. <br />
<br />
Concerning your question, the additional information can be passed into TRI SA by the auxilary, user-definable parameter in TRI send. <br />
<br />
Furthermore, the additional information is optional - you may log it but you do not have to.<br />
<br />
Still we agreed to leverage the definition of TLI, so that the tool vendor may decide if the TE or the TRI/TCI adapter components invoke the logging interface. <br />
<br />
Please note, that having the logs in the adapter components give you more precise time stamps for the interaction with the SUT. This requires however to pass the additional information into the SA whenever you are interested in having it in the log.			</td>
