----------------------------------
Summary: Documentation of BIFs that take variable number of
arguments
Key: BIT-1107
URL: https://bro-tracker.atlassian.net/browse/BIT-1107
Project: Bro Issue Tracker
Issue Type: Problem
Components: Bro
Reporter: Daniel Thayer
The function prototype for BIFs that take a variable number of
arguments appears in an altered form in the online documentation.
Here is a comparison of how these functions appear in the source code,
versus what they look like in the online documentation:
md5_hash%(...%) ===> Type : function (va_args: any)
order%(v: any, ...%) ===> Type : function (va_args: any)
sort%(v: any, ...%) ===> Type : function (va_args: any)
cat_sep%(sep: string, def: string, ...%) ===> Type : function (va_args: any)
The functions that have a named argument ("v" in sort, or "sep" in cat_sep)
have those arguments described in the online documentation, but we
cannot see them in the function prototype (only "va_args" is shown,
which isn't actually the name of any function argument).
