Correct. > Could you please give me more details? *If* the agent were to explicitly release this table data structure, then shutdown_notification_log() would be the obvious place to do so. In an ideal world, that's what we would be doing. (Both for this MIB table, and all of the others that the agent supports). But in practise, this routine would normally only be called shortly before the agent shuts down completely. As Steve says, calling "exit()" means that the O/S will automatically release all of the allocated memory anyway. So we save a little bit of time by not bothering to explicitly release the table data structure here.
