----------------------------------
Summary: Python console's sendMethodRequest() should handle
arguments that have default values in the schema
Key: QPID-5932
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/QPID-5932
Project: Qpid
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Python Client
Affects Versions: 0.22
Reporter: Ernest Allen
Priority: Minor
The python console's sendMethodRequest() should handle some cases where the
number of arguments supplied do not match the number of arguments required by
the schema.
When there are too many arguments supplied, the assumption is that the client
is aware of a new argument, but the broker isn't. This is currently the case
when qpid-route is dealing with an older broker and calls link.bridge(). The
console will look for a named argument that was supplied, but isn't in the
broker's schema. If one is found, it is removed. This requires that the new
argument be named when it is passed to console. Otherwise we would have to
assume the last argument supplied was the extra one, and that would be risky.
When there are too few arguments supplied, the assumption is that client is out
of date and isn't aware a new argument that the schema requires. This is
currently the case when an old qpid-route is dealing with a new broker and
calls link.bridge(). The console will look for arguments in the schema that
have default values (starting at the end of the schema). If one is found, it is
added with the default value. This requires that all new arguments be given a
default value in the schema.
