Hi,

My aim was to programatically send a trap with some string parameter value.
(like a parameter with type 's' when using the snmptrap utility)

I referred the example in notification.c and put some code that uses 
snmp_varlist_add_variable() to add more variables to the trap. 
But it appears that the 4th parameter of this function has to be one of the ASN
types defined in asn1.h.
If I use ASN_OCTET_STR as type to send my string text then in trap that is
received and displayed by the snmptrapd the string is displayed in a Hex format.

I want to display the string in the ASCII style (the way it is displayed when
's' is used as the parameter type for a trap sent using snmptrap )

Is there a corresponding type I can use as the 4th param in the method
snmp_varlist_add_variable()?
Or is there some other method/way for that?

Thanks & regards,
Viren
