Hello Everyone,
I'm testing the Jira sensor and I recently implemented an initialization mechanism that will fetch all pre-existing issues on Jira upon installing the sensor.
For the most part it's looking good, the sensor data is showing up as it should on my localhost Hackystat server.
The problem is that occasionally when I have initiated some Jira issue events and then click on the "Analyze" button in the "Sensor Data Links" section to verify that the data is being received correctly, some Issue sensor data entries show the "tool" field as "Sensor Shell" instead of "Jira". Here's another thing that is strange: it appears that the sensor data entries that say tool=Sensor Shell are actually older entries than the new entries that were just sent by the sensor. Closer examination revealed that some older sensor data entries had their tool field overwritten from "Jira" to "Sensor Shell".
What could be causing this problem? Does it have anything to do with the fact that the Jira sensor invokes "send()" upon each issue event instead of only once at server shutdown? The current implementation invokes the setTool doCommand on each instance of SensorShell at creation so setting the tool is not the problem.
Thank you for your help! Burt
