snmptrap and single quote using java's Runtime.getRuntime().exec function

[Ofer Goren]

Hi All

I have the following piece of java code:
    snmpTrapDesc = "Bad-administartor-Username-or-Password";
     snmpCmd = "/usr/bin/snmptrap -v 2c -c public " + nmsIpAddress +
                    " '' PROXY-MIB::proxyWrongUserPassTrap PROXY-MIB::proxyWrongUserPassTrap s " + snmpTrapDesc;
    Logger.logInformation(this, snmpCmd);
    Runtime.getRuntime().exec(snmpCmd);

snmpTrapDesc, snmpCmd and nmsIpAddress  are all String-s.

I failed to get the sysUpTime in the trap on the trap receiver application. In C, the same works perfectly well (with the required modifications to code, of course). I get the trap, but w/o the sysUpTime.
My questions:
1. Why aren't those double single quote signs working?
2. Is there something I can use to replace them (I tried SNMP_MIB2::sysUpTime.0. Didn't work).

Thanks,
Ofer
