You do not need to change libecap to receive information about the client (in REQMOD) and server (in RESPMOD) connections. You can use the existing libecap::Options API to pass that information from the host application to the adapter transaction.

Your host application may need to be modified to supply the necessary meta information, of course. For example, Squid supplies client IP and user name information to the adapter transaction but needs to be modified to pass the other info you want (see the Adaptation::Ecap::XactionRep::visitEachOption() method in Squid sources). Please use host application support channels to get help with enhancing your host application.
