Not able use events on item. Bug? about source-x HOT 4 CLOSED

tevents=T_potato

tevents stands for "type" events means you need to define it in [TYPEDEF] not [EVENTS]

from source-x.

Ok work for tevent.

But If I have an existing item and want add an event on it, it work?

.xevents + e_potato work and item have the events but it do nothing

from source-x.

Seems like events also works on TYPEDEF I am not sure if it's a default behaviour, as I have never used event on items. But if it's a default behaviour why TEVENTS added, probably it's an issue.

from source-x.

Ok made some test with Gladie.

Apparently Item can have event on them but it make nothing. You can add event on them but they must be define as a TYPEDEF.
Example

[TYPEDEF ei_potato]
on=@DropOn_Ground
serv.log DropOn_Ground work!

after that you can do
.xevents +ei_potato

from source-x.
