Hi, I would like to use a string as a table index for my private mib (so its
easier to identify each row of the table from opennms). I'm declaring the
mib as follows...
MonThreadsTable OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX SEQUENCE OF monThreadsEntry
MAX-ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"softelMonitor Threads Info table"
::= { softelMonitor 1 }
monThreadsEntry OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX monThreadsDetailsEntry
ACCESS not-accessible
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"The monThreadsEntry row definition."
INDEX { IdThread }
::= { MonThreadsTable 1 }
monThreadsDetailsEntry ::=
SEQUENCE {
IdThread DisplayString (SIZE (0..20)),
ProcTime Unsigned32,
MaxProcTime Unsigned32,
ExecNumber Unsigned32
}
.
.
.
I used mib2c to generate a template (used iterate form) but after looking at
the code generated I noticed that mibc generated the following data
structure for my table..
/* Typical data structure for a row entry */
struct MonThreadsTable_entry {
/* Index values */
char IdThread;
/* Column values */
char IdThread;
u_long ProcTime;
u_long MaxProcTime;
u_long ExecNumber;
/* Illustrate using a simple linked list */
int valid;
struct MonThreadsTable_entry *next;
};
Why did mib3c generate the field's table Idthread as a char, shouldn't it be
string (pointer or array of chars???). I changed its declaration to a 20
length char array but when I try to read its contents this message appears
in snmpd log file...
bad size for integer-like type (20)
send response: Error building ASN.1 representation (build int size 20: s/b
4)
So, how should I manage strings????
Thanks for any advice
Alejandro
