Hi, is there any place for plugin to log information?

We are creating native integration effect plugin, It needs to login to web server, which takes time. Before login completed, the plugin does not work properly. 
We want to log some information to users like "login start", "login complete". Or is there any other suggest?
 

Thank you.

You can use the PostMonitorMessage method provided by AK::IAkEffectPluginContext to log a message that will appear in the Capture Log when connected to Wwise.
To avoid running this code in Release configuration, you can put it inside an #ifndef AK_OPTIMIZED ... #endif.

SDK Reference of PostMonitorMessage: https://www.audiokinetic.com/library/edge/?source=SDK&id=class_a_k_1_1_i_ak_plugin_context_base_a0a546e54d0b286da2a28da3ab606b067.html
