[NEST Users] Invalid SpikeEvent variables - e.get_sender_node_id()

Dear NEST community, I was wondering if there have been some changes from NEST 2.x -> 3.x regarding how the SpikeEvent variables are set and their availability in the handle(SpikeEvent& e) function. With 2.20.0, I could access the sender ID from inside the handle() function. With the current master branch, however, this is not possible anymore (or likely I'm doing it wrong). The following one-line addition to the iaf_cond_exp model (the exact model doesn't really matter): void nest::iaf_cond_exp::handle( SpikeEvent& e ) { assert( e.get_delay_steps() > 0 ); std::cout << "iaf_cond_exp >> e.get_sender_node_id(): " << e.get_sender_node_id() << std::endl << std::flush; if ( e.get_weight() > 0.0 ) ... fails with: python: /home/zbarni/software/packages/nest/znest/nestkernel/event.h:1336: nest::index nest::Event::get_sender_node_id() const: Assertion `sender_node_id_ > 0' failed. Furthermore, the SpikeEvent seems invalid (?), as the e.is_valid() call returns a 0. Is this the expected behavior, and if so, are there any alternatives to access the ID of the sender node in the handle() function?
