+This component provides a log and trace interface, based on the standardised
+protocol specified in the AUTOSAR standard 4.0 DLT. This software can be used
+by GENIVI components and other applications as logging framework.
DLT basically consists of 3 components:
-- **DLT Library**: Enables DLT logging for DLT user applications and temporary storage of log messages if daemon isn't available.
-- **DLT Daemon**: Receiving log messages from DLT user applications and temporary storage of log messages if client isn't available. Transmit log messages to DLT Client and response to control messages.
-- **DLT Client**: Receiving and storage of log messages from DLT Daemon into one single trace file and sending control message
