smidump generating invalid XML output for RFC1158 mib

Dear list users, I am trying to dump a MIB to XML using smidump (v0.4.8) but the output provides invalid XML. The MIB in question is: http://www.snmplink.org/OnLineMIB/Standards/index.html#124 (RFC1158-MIB, "rfc 1158 MIB-II.mib"). Some sources do have syntax errors (like missing comma's) which I corrected in the source file already. The XML output from smidump however is invalid XML. It generates the following XML e.g.: ------------------------ <table name="ipNetToMediaTable" oid="1.3.6.1.2.1.4.22" status="mandatory"> <description> ... </description> <row name="ipNetToMediaEntry" oid="1.3.6.1.2.1.4.22.1" status="mandatory"> <linkage> </linkage> <description> ... </description> <scalar name="ipNetToMediaIfIndex" oid="1.3.6.1.2.1.4.22.1.1" status="mandatory"> ------------------------ As can be seen in this example, the <row> tag is never closed and neither is the <table> tag. This is not the only occurance though and happends several times in this same file. This means I can not parse the XML output and also means I'm missing data. Is this a known bug? Is there a workaround? Or am I doing something wrong? With kind regards, Peter Postma

objects with hyphens in a SMIv2 MIB (imported from SMIv1) are not in the output using smidump

Dear list users, I am having problems using smidump (v0.4.8) to export a MIB to XML. The MIB is: INTEL-LAN-ADAPTERS-MIB, INTELLAN.mib, v 1.4.3 01/06/2004 (MIB Version = 1.4.5). This MIB is from Intel but provided by Dell in a package of MIBs, is SMIv2 formatted, but seems to be imported from SMIv1. It contains objects and labels with hyphens producing the [5] hyphen-in-object and [4] hyphen-in-label warnings. These are not parsed by smidump at all and are missing from the output (in my case, XML but also for smiv1 and smiv2 formats). Is there any way for smidump to parse these entries and provide them in the output, disregarding the warnings? With kind regards, Peter Postma

libsmi-0.4.8:dump-cm.c:469:Same expression on both sides of '>'

Hello there, I just ran the static analysis tool "cppcheck" over the source code of libsmi-0.4.8. It said [dump-cm.c:469] -> [dump-cm.c:469]: (style) Same expression on both sides of '>'. Source code is if (x1 == x2 && y1> y1) con = 1; I suspect if (x1 == x2 && y1> y2) con = 1; might be better code. Regards David Binderman
