[smokeping-users] Probe Target Variable Definition

[Tony DeMatteis]

Greetings,

I've written a probe and would like to define a target variable. The 
probe is working as expected.  However, I am having some difficulty 
determining why my target variable definition is resulting in an error.

Dec  7 11:25:38 smokeping1 smokeping[12632]: Can't call method 
"SUPER::targetvars" on an undefined value at 
/usr/share/perl5/Smokeping/probes/MyCustomProbe.pm line 307

Here I've added the following to the sub targetvars {} of my probe.

      version => {
        _doc => <<DOC,
  The version option specifies the version.
  DOC
        _example => "6.20",
      },

It is not defined in the _mandatory => [] struct as I don't want it to 
be a mandatory variable, but optional.

The probe loads without any errors on service start up.  I can add the 
version variable to a Target definition and it is passed to my probe.  
However, I can't isolate the cause of the error above other than I know 
it's due to the added target variable definition.

Any direction would be greatly appreciated.  I would like to finish and 
polish off this probe so that I can publish it.

Thank you
