Protocol message had invalid UTF-8 - hyperledger-sawtooth

Question

Has anyone tried the sawtooth-java-sdk v1.0.3 to create events on the Hyperledger Sawtooth?
I am getting the following exception
com.google.protobuf.InvalidProtocolBufferException: Protocol message had invalid UTF-8.

This is how I am creating the event in the TransactionHandler#apply()
ByteString eventdata = ByteString.copyFrom("This is a test....".getBytes("UTF-8"));
Map<String, String> attributesMap = new HashMap<String, String>();
attributesMap.put("address", address);
attributesMap.put("namespace", address.substring(0,6));
Collection<Map.Entry<String, String>> attributes = attributesMap.entrySet();
state.addEvent("rootevent/myevent", attributes, eventdata);
Here's my Event Listener code:
byte[] resp = socket.recv(0);
message = Message.parseFrom(resp);
sawToothEvent = Event.parseFrom(message.getContent());
Event.parseFrom throws the exception.

Answer 1

The events come in within an EventList, as opposed to a single bare Event. So it should be more like
byte[] resp = socket.recv(0);
message = Message.parseFrom(resp);
evtList = EventList.parseFrom(message.getContent());
for (Event evt : evtList.getEventsList()) {
...
}
