You need to define the name and that it's a record in the types.bif file 
and then create a Bro script with the full type definition that is auto 
loaded when your plugin is loaded.  I think that if you used the script 
that autogenerates a structure for you, you should have a file named 
scripts/types.bro that is exactly for this purpose.
