My script creates a bunch of breakpoints (by address), launches the target and then goes into an infinite loop checking 'process.GetState()'. The scripts checks for a state of 'eStateStopped', and then iterates through the threads until it finds a thread stop reason of 'eStopReasonBreakpoint'. The issue with that approach is that I can't figure out which breakpoint triggered the thread to stop. So I guess I have two questions, (1) how do I use SetCallback() to call a method when a breakpoint is triggered and (2) if I know which thread hit my breakpoint, how do I know which SBBreakpoint triggered?

The documentation for SBBreakpoint gives a prototype of SetCallback(BreakpointHitCallback callback, void baton) but BreakpointHitCallback doesn't appear to be documented in the python docs.

There's an events sample for python. Essentially you have a thread 
waiting for events on a listener, the wait call returns and the SBEvent 
you get then can be retrieved:

SBEvent data;
while (!stop) {
if (self->m_listener.WaitForEvent(UINT32_MAX, data)) {
   if (data.getType() == SBProcess::eBroadcastBitStateChanged && 
m_process.GetStateFromEvent (data) == eStateStopped) {
     SBThread th = m_process.GetSelectedThread();
     if (th.GetStopReason() == eStopReasonBreakpoint) {
       // th.GetStopReasonDataAtIndex(0) should have the breakpoint id
     }
   }
}
}

something like that
