Hi,
I haven't managed to find the reason why the cache helper
implementation of the net-snmp-5.7.2.1 doesn't work properly in my
application.
I've cross-compiled the net-snmp-5.6.2.1 version, using the
arm-linux-gcc 4.5.1, and my sub-agent works fine.
When I compared the code of the cache helper implementation in the
net-snmp 5.7.2.1 with 5.6.2.1 I found out that the netsnmp_cache
structure of the net-snmp 5.7.2.1 contains a new variable: int
refcnt. This variable is used in the
netsnmp_cache_handler_owns_cache() function.
Does anybody can explain me how should I use this function in the
source code which I mentioned in my previous message?
I don't exactly understand why, but when I simply add the "refcnt"
variable into the netsnmp_cache structure definition
(cache_handler.h) of the net-snmp 5.6.2.1 (with which my application
works) and recompiled it, the sub-agent crashed.
Does the net-snmp support the cross-compilation with arm-linux-gcc?
Maybe somebody knows which kind of tests from the net-snmp have to
show the result of the correct cache helper work?
Thanks in advance,
Ekaterina
