smidump --format=smiv2 output contains some errors in compliance SYNTAX/WRITE-SYNTAX clauses.

Hello, I just stumbled over the following problem in libsmi 0.4.8 and development trunk-tip rev34557 (as of today). The problem resides in the SYNTAX/WRITE-SYNTAX clauses in COMPLIANCE statements. Instead of a "type" the invalid term "(null)" is present. AFFECTED-MIBS (at least): - BRIDGE-MIB - SNMP-VIEW-BASED-ACM-MIB - ... => grep "(null)" *-MIB EXAMPLE: smidump --format=smiv2 BRIDGE-MIB ... OBJECT dot1dStpPriority SYNTAX (null) (0 | 4096 | 8192 | 12288 | 16384 | 20480 | 24576 | 28672 | 32768 | 36864 | 40960 | 45056 | 49152 | 53248 | 57344 | 61440) ... OBJECT dot1dStpPortPriority SYNTAX (null) (0 | 16 | 32 | 48 | 64 | 80 | 96 | 112 | 128 | 144 | 160 | 176 | 192 | 208 | 224 | 240) BUT: Original BRIDGE-MIB that is distributed w/ libsmi contains: OBJECT dot1dStpPriority SYNTAX Integer32 (0 | 4096 | 8192 | 12288 | 16384 | 20480 | 24576 | 28672 | 32768 | 36864 | 40960 | 45056 | 49152 | 53248 | 57344 | 61440) ... OBJECT dot1dStpPortPriority SYNTAX Integer32 (0 | 16 | 32 | 48 | 64 | 80 | 96 | 112 | 128 | 144 | 160 | 176 | 192 | 208 | 224 | 240) smidump --format=smiv2 SNMP-VIEW-BASED-ACM-MIB ... OBJECT vacmViewTreeFamilyMask WRITE-SYNTAX (null) (SIZE(0)) ... SHOULD-BE (as in original MIB distributed with libsmi): ... OBJECT vacmViewTreeFamilyMask WRITE-SYNTAX OCTET STRING (SIZE(0)) I assume that smidump does not have the info (only a NULL pointer) and just dumps it as textual info. NOTE: "smidiff <ORIGINAL-MIB> <SMIDUMPED-MIB>" does not seem to show a difference (except warnings, ...). Ciao, Jens

Libsmi 64bit windows
by Doron Tsur 28 Nov '12

Hi, We've been using libsmi for a long time and it's been serving us well. I'm in the process of porting one of our infrastructures project to 64bit systems. I've been having difficulties understanding what to compile in order to create a 64 bit windows lib. The version I'm currently using (don't laugh) is 0.2.13 which is well before my time. Could you assist me with that? Good Day, Doron Tsur
