However the main aim of this document (which is now showing its age!), was primarily to provide an *explanation* of how the agent worked, rather than as a cookbook of code. So with both this fragment, and the framework of the 'var_system' call immediately above it - in both cases I deliberately omitted the types of the function parameters, in order to emphasise that the list of parameters passed into the "var_system" call were immediately passed to the "header_generic" routine, exactly as is. I felt (rightly or wrongly) that including the full function prototypes would obscure this behaviour, so opted for the simpler layout. Time has now passed this document by, and we really need something similar that describes the newer V5 handler-based MIB module API.
