Mib Designer 1.8.6

[Dave Barratt]

Hi Frank,
The 'bug' happenned when I was 'sketching out' the mib structure adding
lists of Object Identifiers.  Could be due to some export<->import error by
myself but I'll see if I can make it happen reliably.

Also, with the agent++ I reliably get a memory leak if the agent fails to
start (because the port is in use).  I delete the pointer to the agent if
this happens in my code.  I'm using VC6, Win2k, MFC app statically linked to
the latest snmp++ & agent++ libs (single threaded, no v3).
I can send a BoundsChecker log of the leak sources if you want/can read it.

And finally...Has anyone come across some code that starts\stops a Windows
service - i.e the SNMP Service?

Dave
