Hi,
when writing a NOX component in Python, I derive it from the component
class. It is then initialized with a context pointer ctxt. I think this
is to recognize different instances of one component, right? Is there
any other purpose for this context stuff?
I recognized that there are methods, for example
"send_port_stats_request" that are only exposed through the context
class. What is the reason for this? Why is this not exposed through the
component class? I could simply use send_openflow_command or something
from the component class to send a stats_request.
Is there any documentation about this or can someone tell me how this works?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Bernd
