P> How to set convert the u_int64_t to counter64 or U64. 

The easiest way is to simply copy the two 32bit components of the uint64
into the counter64 structure's 'high' and 'low' elements.

P> Is there any other type to handle u_int64_t instead of using counter64 ?.

No, the Net-SNMP code base never assumes that int64 support is
available on the system.  Generally we can't since many embedded devices
that still make use of our code don't have 64-bit support.

It'd probably be worth adding a new return type that auto-converts a
uint64 to a counter64 for people that are sure they're never going to
need to run on a 32 bit only system, but internally we could also never
use it :-/

(really in the above, I mean "a system that doesn't have support for
64-bit data types" since even many 32-bit CPUs still have 64-bit
datatype support)
