Hi Dave,
The code I generated for ifXTable is by using the ucd-snmp style.
Also, I gone through the code for ifXTable implementation in the repository. That code
is generated using the new style i believe. not even in the format of net-snmp 5.1.1
release. am i right?
Also, I have taken this code from the repository and trying to compile which results
in so many errors. These errors should be coz of missing some extra files needed for
this or someother. That is why i skipped taking the code from the repository and write
the implementation on my own.
Now, I implemented the code for ifXTable using the ucd-snmp stlye and only problem
which I have for the counter64 variables. when i try to debug the problem, it is
coming inside the appropriate case statement and storing the values properly ( I
printed the "ret_val" variable in the below code) . After the method returns to the
calling place, there is some problem.
here is the exact code which I put inside this var_ifXTable using counter64 structure.
var_ifXTable(....)
{
char *ret_val;
unsigned long long uu_long;
struct counter64 c64;
switch (vp->magic)
{
....................
....................
case IFHCINOCTETS:
ret_val = (char *) calloc(1, 21);
/* to store the value in c64 structure*/
c64.high = 0;
c64.low = 1;
/* convert the structure into unsigned long long */
uu_long = c64.high;
uu_long = uu_long << 32;
uu_long = uu_long | c64.low;
/* storing it in a string format */
sprintf(ret_val, "%lld", uu_long);
/* return statement expecting string format */
return (u_char *) ret_val;
....................
....................
}
}
can you suggest me the above way is correct or do we need to handle it in different
way?
Thanks & Regards,
Karthik
