I'll pass on the cross-compilation query - this isn't something I have an particular familiarity with. > is Perl is lib is require on target platform. Typically, no. > i also want know what are the net-snmp dependency on Perl. There are three main places where Perl may be used within the Net-SNMP suite. Firstly, there are several tools shipped with the Net-SNMP distribution (including "mib2c" and "snmpconf") that are written using Perl. So the perl modules are clearly necessary in order to use these tools. Secondly, the perl modules can also be used to develop other client-side applications. If you wish to do this (or use perl-based client tools that others have written) then you will also need the perl modules. Neither of these are typically relevant to an embedded target system. Thirdly, there is the facility to use perl within the agent itself - both using perl within the config file (e.g. to handle more complex dynamic configuration settings), or to extend the agent to handle new MIB modules. This support is included (or not) at the point where "configure" is run, before the agent is compiled. If the agent is compiled to include embedded perl support, then perl (and the Net-SNMP perl modules) *will* be needed on the target system. If embedded perl support is not enabled, then they won't.
