Nature: Uncategorized Issue
Severity: 
Summary: We don't have a timestamp in the slm_event() method of the ITSC_Callback interface (page 2-21) 

I think, this would be usefult to determine when an event was created by the slm
Resolution: Create a timestamp in the slm_event method of the ITSC_Callback
Revised Text: On page page 2-21change 

void slm_event ( 
in string slm_id, 
in string unit_id, 
in string event_id, 
in SLM_INTERFACE::EEventType event_type, 
in string interaction_id, 
in string priority, 
in SLM_INTERFACE::SLM_RESULT slm_state, 
in SLM_INTERFACE::SeqAny arguments 
); 
to 
void slm_event ( 
in string slm_id, 
in string unit_id, 
in string event_id, 
in SLM_INTERFACE::EEventType event_type, 
in string interaction_id, 
in string priority, 
in SLM_INTERFACE::SLM_RESULT slm_state, 
in SLM_INTERFACE::SeqAny arguments 
in string timestamp; 
); 

and add the following text at page 2-24 after the description of the priority parameter. 

Format of timestamp: yyyymmddhhmmssmmm (year/ month/ day/ hour/ minutes/ 
seconds/ milliseconds) 
Example: "20010615093023456" 


On page 8-4 change the definition 

void slm_event ( 
in string slm_id, 
in string unit_id, 
in string event_id, 
in SLM_INTERFACE::EEventType event_type, 
in string interaction_id, 
in string priority, 
in SLM_INTERFACE::SLM_RESULT slm_state, 
in SLM_INTERFACE::SeqAny arguments 
); 

to 

void slm_event ( 
in string slm_id, 
in string unit_id, 
in string event_id, 
in SLM_INTERFACE::EEventType event_type, 
in string interaction_id, 
in string priority, 
in SLM_INTERFACE::SLM_RESULT slm_state, 
in SLM_INTERFACE::SeqAny arguments 
in string timestamp; 
);

We don't have a timestamp in the slm_event() method of the
ITSC_Callback interface (page 2-21) 

I think, this would be usefult to determine when an event was created
by the slm.

I agree with Thorsten. Time stamping events is crucial for
reconstructing the chronological order, debugging, and audit trailing.

I agree with Thorsten. Time stamping SLM events has many advantages
(e.g., debugging, audit trailing, etc.)
