Okay, so first a pure Bro example. This one works:
module Foo;
global foo: event(); // declaration
event foo()
{
print "foo";
}
event bro_init()
{
event Foo::foo();
}
If I remove the event declaration, I get:
error in ./foo.bro, line 10: not an event (Foo::foo())
If I remove the Foo:: qualification in bro_init *and* the declaration, I
get the expected output again. If I don't remove the declaration,
nothing gets printed.
Now with Broker, a working example:
redef exit_only_after_terminate = T;
module Foo;
global foo: event(); // declaration
event foo()
{
print "foo";
}
event Broker::peer_added(endpoint: Broker::EndpointInfo, msg: string)
{
Broker::publish("foo", Broker::make_event(foo));
}
event Broker::peer_lost(endpoint: Broker::EndpointInfo, msg: string)
{
terminate();
}
event bro_init()
{
Broker::subscribe("foo");
Broker::peer("localhost", 55555/tcp);
}
The Broker Python script:
#!/usr/bin/env python
import broker
import broker.bro
# Setup endpoint and subscribers.
endpoint = broker.Endpoint()
endpoint.listen("localhost", 55555)
subscriber = endpoint.make_subscriber("foo")
while True:
topic, data = subscriber.get()
print(data)
endpoint.publish("foo", broker.bro.Event("Foo::foo"))
The Python script prints
[<broker._broker.Count object at 0x10ac9f5e0>, <broker._broker.Count object
at 0x10ace2880>, ['Foo::foo', []]]
and the Bro script "foo". So far so good. If I remove the event
declaration, the Python script prints
[<broker._broker.Count object at 0x10ac7c810>, <broker._broker.Count object
at 0x10a04e8b8>, ['foo', []]]
and the Bro script nothing.
I hope this illustrates the issue a bit better.
