Adding metadata to a blog entry

Hello -

I am trying to add metadata to an entry when it is being
saved. The 
plugin compiles okay and everything else in the plugin works
fine except 
the metadata is not saved to the entry.meta file.  There is
nothing in 
the log files indicating an error occurred. Does anyone have
any ideas 
what I'm doing wrong?


My plugin handleEvent looks something like:


public void handleEvent(BlojsomEvent event) {

       if (event instanceof AddBlogEntryEvent) {
                BlogEntryEvent entryEvent = (BlogEntryEvent)
event;

           ...
           ...
           ...
          
entryEvent.getBlogEntry().getMetaData().put("meta-key-
name", 
"meta-value");
          ...
           ...
           ...
   }
}

Move the code to the processEvent(...) method and listen for
the the
ProcessBlogEntryEvent. This is fired before the blog entry
is saved and is
where you can add some meta-data to the blog entry to have
it saved.

The AddBlogEntryEvent is not necessarily misleading in its
name, but it's an
event fired after the blog entry has been added.
