             Summary: Python QMF console: QMFv2 object statistic notifications 
not working.
                 Key: QPID-4756
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-4756
             Project: Qpid
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Qpid Managment Framework
    Affects Versions: 0.22
            Reporter: Ken Giusti
            Assignee: Ken Giusti
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.23


The QMF python console module provides a Console interface class that provides 
callbacks for QMF-related asynchronous events.  This class can be used to 
receive notifications when managed objects are updated.  These notifications 
come when an object's Statistics or Properties change.

The first version of QMF (QMFv1) provided separate notification messages for 
Statistics and Properties changes.  Thus, the Console class provides two 
callback interfaces - one for Statistics updates (objectStats), and a separate 
one for Property changes (objectProps).

The current version of QMF (QMFv2) was designed to consolidate the separate 
notification messages into a single message containing both properties and 
statistics.

However, the dual callback interface has not changed to reflect the QMFv2 
behavior.

Currently, when a QMFv2 update notification arrives, the Console's objectProps 
method is invoked, passing the updated information.  However, this information 
can contain both statistics and properties.  This is awkward at best, because 
existing applications would have to distinguish between QMFv1 updates and QMFv2 
updates, and handle them differently (eg. objectProps handler would have check 
for updated statistics in the case of QMFv2 objects, but not for QMFv1 objects).

This patch introduces a new callback method to the Console object:

    objectUpdate( broker, object )

this method is invoked only for QMFv2 object updates.  The object passed may 
contain both statistics and property values.

This patch changes the behavior of the existing callback code to only pass 
QMFv1 object updates to the old objectStats/objectProps interfaces.  QMFv1 
updates are -not- passed to objectUpdate(), only QMFv2 updates are.

The intent is to deprecate the objectStats/objectProps interfaces when QMFv1 is 
deprecated, and support objectUpdate() going forward.
