GROUP typedef in winsock2.h clash

[Guy.HINDELL____opentrade.co.uk]

Hi there

It looks like the agent++.h header #includes winsock.h on WIN32 platforms. I
am trying to build an agent which incorporates some material from a library
the headers for which #include winsock2.h.

Unfortunately winsock2.h includes the following typedef...

typedef unsigned int             GROUP;

which conflicts with the enumeration of 'mib_type' in mib_entry.h...

typedef enum { NONE, SHADOW, PROXY, LEAF, TABLE, GROUP, COMPLEX, 
	       AGENTX_NODE, AGENTX_LEAF } mib_type;



I've fiddled my way around this, but maybe the enumerated type names should
be changed to something more AGENT++ specific (AGENTPP_LEAF) etc. to get
round this - I wonder if this is or will be a problem for others. Just a
thought.

cheers
