Re: [libsmi] re-engineering xml file to smi doc. with xsl

Hi! Mark> If I remeber currectly, you can use xsl to transform one XML Mark> into another XML. Since SMI is not in an XML like format, I Mark> don't think it is possible. XSL can transform to XML, but also to plain text and further optional formats. (<xsl:output method="text|xml|html|..."/>) Mark> Anyway, what reason is there to retransform an XML to SMI? I did not try to do such conversations, since we already have smidump. Maybe, XSLT 1.0 is missing some programatic features. I don't know. However, I agree with awk that it would be `cool' to do this with XSLT. Some people might bring forward the argument that programming and adapting XSL snippets is easier and more flexible than traditional program code. I'm not sure whether I share this argument *completely*, but however I think it's cool to use XSL for prototyping conversions. -frank

Re: [libsmi] extern "C" missing in smi.h

Hi, I think the code maintainers can add it in smi.h, instead of expecting the library users to add it. #ifdef __cplusplus extern "C" { #endif extern int smiInit(const char *tag); ....... ...... #ifdef __cplusplus } #endif #endif /* _SMI_H */ > "Ashok Kumar [ GVG DDF ]" wrote: > > Hi, > of course you should use extern c , to build in c++ > regards > ashok > -----Original Message----- > From: Ramesh Natarajan [mailto:ramesh@motorola.com] > Sent: Monday, May 27, 2002 11:41 AM > To: libsmi(a)ibr.cs.tu-bs.de > Subject: [libsmi] extern "C" missing in smi.h > > Hi all, > > Currently it is not possible to use libsmi in c++ program. > I think extern "C" must be specified in smi.h for the apis > so that C++ programs can link libsmi > > Any suggestions?? > > Regds, > Ramesh > > -- > -- > !!

extern "C" missing in smi.h
by Ramesh Natarajan 27 May '02

27 May '02

Hi all, Currently it is not possible to use libsmi in c++ program. I think extern "C" must be specified in smi.h for the apis so that C++ programs can link libsmi Any suggestions?? Regds, Ramesh --

Can libsmi give me the name from OID?
by Henrik Nordberg 23 May '02

23 May '02

Hi, I tried looking at the documentation and searching the mailing list but could not find the answer to this question: Is it possible to use libsmi to get the name and description from an OID (which is defined in a MIB that is present in the MIB search path)? I tried this code: SmiNode *smiNode = ::smiGetNodeByOID(oidLen, oidArr); with oidArr = {1,3,6,1,2,1,1,3} and oidLen = 8, but smiNode->description is NULL and ->name is "iso". I expected name to be "sysUpTime" and description to be "The time (in hundredths of a second) since the network management portion of the system was last re-initialized." (see http://www.alvestrand.no/objectid/1.3.6.1.2.1.1.3.html) The ->oid member is simply {1}. Shouldn't it be {1,3,6,1,2,1,1,3}? Initializations is done like this: smiInit(NULL); char* pc = smiGetPath(); // For verification. where pc is a list of directories where I have my MIBs. Thanks for any suggestions you might have. I am running on Win2k and libsmi-0.3.1. I had to modify dump-scli.c to make it compile, since msvc 6 does not have regexp.h. Thanks, Henrik

re-engineering xml file to smi doc. with xsl
by Ambles Kock 21 May '02

21 May '02

Hi all, I am interested to know whether there is an example XSL file that re-engineers a smidump -f xml output file to a SMIv1, SMIv2, or SMIng MIB file. That would be a cool feature for libsmi. comments? - awk --------------------------------- Do You Yahoo!? LAUNCH - Your Yahoo! Music Experience

very very small bug
by Mark Kaplun 17 May '02

17 May '02

The node type of the "iso" node (and probably "ccitt" as well) is SMI_NODEKIND_UNKNOWN instead of SMI_NODEKIND_NODE. It should be initialized ater the creation of the objects in smiInitData in data.c Mark.

smilint: Counter32 and Counter64 read-only
by Pamela Heckmann 17 May '02

17 May '02

Hi, RFC2578 states for Counter32 and Counter64 that the MAX-ACCESS clause is either "read-only" or "accessible-for-notify." I tested a Counter as read-write with Libsmi 0.3.1 and smilint did not catch this. I also tested the MIB with the smilint on SimpleWeb. Have you noticed this before?

Index elements should be not-accessible.....
by Vivekanandan V 17 May '02

17 May '02

Hello, Iam using smilint 0.3.1. For Index elements (of Tables) having a MAX-ACCESS as read-only, an error is given in severity level 5 as, " index element should be not-accessible in SMIv2 MIB" So, does it mean that Index elements cannot be read-only?? If so, can you please let me know whether is it mentioned in any standard Rfc??

Re: [libsmi] failed to locate MIB module
by Frank Strauss 16 May '02

Hi! Rajaram> Following is the example code present in the libsmi site for Rajaram> dumping the OID subtree for the OID given as argument. But I Rajaram> added some more lines to read a given configuration file and Rajaram> to print 'name' and 'description' of SNMPv2-SMI module. The Rajaram> configure file (see attached below the code) 'load's 3 Rajaram> modules. The smiIsLoaded() calls actually says they are Rajaram> loaded (return 1). But still I get the following errors: Rajaram> failed to locate MIB module `SNMPv2-SMI' Rajaram> failed to locate MIB module `SNMPv2-TC' Rajaram> failed to locate MIB module `SNMPv2-CONF' Rajaram> LOAD STATUS: 1 1 1 Rajaram> failed to locate MIB module `SNMPv2-SMI' Rajaram> 0 [main] tell 640 handle_exceptions: Exception: Rajaram> STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION Rajaram> 4774 [main] tell 640 open_stackdumpfile: Dumping stack trace to Rajaram> tell.exe.stackdump Rajaram> Any idea what I might be doing wrong? How can I avoid these Rajaram> "failed to locate MIB module" errors despite giving the SMI Rajaram> path so explicitly? Thanks in advance for your time. The fact that smiIsLoaded() returns 1 is a bug. I've just fixed it and commited the fix to the anonymous CVS repository. If you specify a path that contains at least one directory that contains the requested modules, the "failed to locate ..." message should disappear. Please check, whether you are using : or ; as the path separator character. The default on Windows systems is ; so that your specified smiSetPath() argument probably does not what you expect. :-) The fact that libsmi crashes in this case where some basic modules are not found, is also a bug, of course. I did not yet fix this. -frank
