I am wondering if in real life a MIB is really a database (see
"Understanding SNMP MIBs" by D.Perkins). It's my understanding,
that it is a conceptual database, but in "real life" a MIB is realized as
a lookup table for instrumentation code.

I did not implement a public access method, because I thought that
it would be a better design style to access management values from
within the instrumentation code. Writing them from outside has some
disadvantages: for example, the need for synchronization.

I do not have any warnings when compiling AGENT++ using g++ with -Wall.
Do you use -pedantic? What operating system?
