libsmi reporting parse error, expecting '$'
by Juergen Schoenwaelder 21 Mar '07

21 Mar '07

Folks, I was getting this error IF-MIB:1: parse error, expecting `$' on several differnt platforms and it finally turned out to be an issue with bison/flex. I do not know the details, but I do know that the combination bison 1.875d and flex 2.5.31 does not work while the combination bison 2.1 and flex 2.5.4 seems to be fine. So if someone runs into similar trouble, make sure you upgrade your build tools... /js -- Juergen Schoenwaelder International University Bremen <http://www.eecs.iu-bremen.de/> P.O.

More malformed patterns using -f xsd
by Arndt Jonasson 13 Sep '06

13 Sep '06

I use libsmi 0.4.5. When I have a textual convention like this one: 1) NiceString1 ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION DISPLAY-HINT "2d" STATUS current DESCRIPTION "doc" SYNTAX OCTET STRING (SIZE (2)) the pattern which "dumpsmi -f xsd" translates the display hint into is: ((0|[1-9]([0-9]{0,5})) which has unbalanced parentheses. I think that line 655 smiAsprintf( &ret, "%s(0|[1-9]([0-9]{0,%d})", should be smiAsprintf( &ret, "%s(0|[1-9]([0-9]{0,%d}))", 2) Similar problem here: NiceString2 ::= TEXTUAL-CONVENTION DISPLAY-HINT "4d" STATUS current DESCRIPTION "doc" SYNTAX OCTET STRING (SIZE (0..2 | 4..5)) The pattern: (((0|[1-9]([0-9]{0,5}))|((0|[1-9]([0-9]{0,10}))) I think that line 726 if( ! lengths[ i - 2 ] ) { should be if( ! lengths[0] ) { (The fix from problem 2 is needed too here.) 3) A third problem with patterns from display hints is that a period (.) is not always escaped with a backslash (\.) (for example with the display hint "1x."). My suggested fix is to use a two-character char array for 'separator', and insert the '\' already when the separator is set from the hint. Then no tests are needed further down, but the %c changed to %s.

Hi On Darwin (MacOS X) the GNU libtool is installed as "glibtool", I attach a suggested patch to autogen.sh to deal with this. Cheers, /Sebastian -- Sebastian Strollo seb(a)tail-f.com Tail-f Systems AB

Would you mind renaming the function static int pow( int base, unsigned int exponent ) to something that does not name clash with math.h and libm which have double pow(double x, double y); I changed it to SMIpow to shut up the compiler. You make have some other preference. -- There's no point in being grown up if you can't be childish sometimes. -- Dr. Who
