Hi Frank , Thanks you for ur modification . Is this fixed on windows version also . How can I set the SMIPATH ( mib directory path ) at runtime for smilint ? . How do I write configuration file for smilint ?, so that I can specify the mibs path in the configuration file .

OK. So you essentially have a definition for Unsigned64 which should be valid as long as it is used by SMIv2 modules but it should be invalid if used by SPPI modules and libsmi always complains. I am not sure how easy it will be to fix this because libsmi treats Unsigned64 internally as a base type and Counter64 actually as a type derived from Unsigned64 (basically following the SMIng model). Frank, do you have an idea how to address this name clash?
For now, I have written a test case for libsmi and checked it into the SVN repository which demonstrates the problem.
I have just modified the parser so that it now accepts (and warns) about such type definitions that match existing SPPI or SMI base type names.
$ SMIPATH=:test/mibs ./tools/smilint test/mibs/LIBSMI-TEST-018-MIB test/mibs/LIBSMI-TEST-018-MIB:41: warning: definition of identifier `Unsigned64' which is already a SMI or SPPI basetype

No, I changed just the source code in the SVN repository.

By setting the SMIPATH environment variable. See also the MODULE LOCATIONS section in the smi_config(3) man page.
How do I write configuration file for smilint ?, so that I can specify the mibs path in the configuration file .
Again, see the documentation.

I can cross compile new binaries. However, I would welcome if we would have a new version number before doing that. (A new version number might also help to get packages updated - the problem with the AC_DEFINE macro in the .m4 file has hit several people already).
So what about smilint 0.4.4?

I don't care much about version numbers. So that's ok with me. Jürgen, do you have any todos that are easy to do and should be added before? Otherwise, I could get 0.4.4 ready after lunch.
